LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Glycerophospholipid metabolism

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Sphingolipid metabolism.4[1], 5[2]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio reflects FADS-mediated desaturation of fatty acids incorporated into complex lipids, indicating a balance between glycerophospholipid and sphingolipid pools.

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites related through biology

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Genetic variants in FADS1/FADS2 are associated with altered fatty acid metabolism and inflammation, contributing to phenotypes like valvular heart disease, IBD, and type 2 diabetes by modulating the balance of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory lipid mediators.6[1], 7[2], 8[3], 9[4]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:FADS1/FADS2
