LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Histidine metabolism.5[1], 6[2], 7[3]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid beta-oxidation.8[1], 9[2], 10[3]

Ratio Explanation:

An increased ratio may indicate altered SLC22A4 function, affecting the balance between ergothioneine uptake (related to hercynine) and fatty acid metabolism, relevant in inflammation.2[1], 8[2]

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites related through biology

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Reduced SLC22A4-mediated transport of the antioxidant ergothioneine, derived from hercynine, could exacerbate inflammatory responses seen in psoriatic arthropathies and nasal polyps.1[1], 2[2], 11[3]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:SLC22A4
