LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Sphingolipid metabolism.7[1], 8[2]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Glycerophospholipid metabolism / Ether lipid metabolism.9[1], 10[2]

Ratio Explanation:

Ratio likely reflects APOE's role in the differential transport and metabolism of sphingolipids and ether phospholipids within lipoprotein particles.11[1], 12[2], 13[3]

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites related through biology

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

APOE genetic variants alter lipoprotein metabolism, reflected by the lipid ratio, leading to dyslipidemia (e.g., pure hypercholesterolaemia), a key risk factor for associated cardiovascular phenotypes like myocardial infarction and atherosclerosis.14[1], 15[2], 16[3]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:APOE
