LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Sphingolipid biosynthesis/metabolism.5[1], 6[2]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Sphingolipid biosynthesis/metabolism.5[1], 6[2]

Ratio Explanation:

This ratio reflects the balance between different species within the sphingomyelin class. ISM1 may regulate sphingolipid homeostasis, influencing the relative abundance of these metabolites.3[1]

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites related through biology

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

ISM1's role in lipid metabolism may influence sphingomyelin composition.1[1], 3[2] Altered sphingomyelin levels and ISM1 are independently associated with cholelithiasis and changes in LDL-cholesterol and ALT, suggesting a complex interaction.7[3], 8[4], 2[5], 9[6]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:ISM1
