LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Glycerophospholipid metabolism.3[1], 4[2]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Glycerophospholipid metabolism.4[1], 5[2], 6[3], 7[4]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio reflects FADS-mediated conversion of linoleic acid (18:2) to its downstream product arachidonic acid (20:4), which are incorporated into different phospholipids.1[1], 2[2], 8[3]

Ratio Evidence:

reaction where the ratio is shared through a pathway

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Genetic variation in the FADS cluster alters desaturase activity, changing the abundance of lipids containing 18:2 vs. 20:4.2[1], 8[2] This may promote cholelithiasis and hypercholesterolemia through effects on inflammation and cholesterol metabolism.9[3], 10[4], 11[5]

Phenotype Driver:

Metabolite-centric[both]
