LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Steroid hormone biosynthesis.2[1], 3[2]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Steroid hormone metabolism.4[1], 3[2]

Ratio Explanation:

This ratio reflects the balance between a sulfated steroid precursor (21-hydroxypregnenolone disulfate) and a downstream metabolite (5alpha-pregnan-3beta,20beta-diol monosulfate), potentially influenced by sulfotransferase activity.

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites related through biology

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Genetic variation near the GAL3ST4 gene may alter steroid metabolism, reflected by the ratio. Given that steroid levels are linked to inflammation and metabolic regulation, this could influence phenotypes like C-reactive protein, white blood cell count, uric acid, and BMI.5[1], 6[2], 7[3]

Phenotype Driver:

Metabolite-centric[both]
