LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Androgen and Estrogen Metabolism.5[1], 6[2], 7[3], 8[4]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Androgen and Estrogen Metabolism.5[1], 9[2], 10[3]

Ratio Explanation:

This ratio reflects the balance between two branches of DHEA metabolism; its association with PCOLCE suggests an indirect link via extracellular matrix biology.

Ratio Evidence:

reaction where the ratio is shared through a pathway

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

PCOLCE variants may alter extracellular matrix biology, influencing body composition (BMI, Height).2[1], 11[2], 12[3] This systemic change could secondarily affect steroid metabolism and inflammatory markers (CRP, WBC), which are associated with metabolic health and tissue remodeling.13[4], 14[5]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:PCOLCE
