LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Sphingomyelin synthesis and degradation.

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Sphingomyelin synthesis and degradation.

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio reflects altered sphingolipid metabolism, potentially influenced by HNF1A, where different sphingomyelin species may impact membrane function and signaling pathways related to cardiometabolic health.6[1], 10[2], 11[3], 12[4], 13[5], 14[6]

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites not in a pathway but enzyme catalyzes one metabolite

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

HNF1A variants alter sphingolipid metabolism, and this dysregulation, particularly in sphingomyelin profiles, is associated with an increased risk of valvular heart disease, myocardial infarction, and cholelithiasis, likely through effects on inflammation, lipid metabolism, and cellular signaling.2[1], 3[2], 11[3], 4[4], 8[5], 9[6]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:HNF1A
