LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Sphingolipid metabolism.4[1]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Sphingolipid metabolism.4[1]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio reflects sphingomyelin species composition. SGPP1's role in recycling sphingosine for ceramide synthesis could influence the acyl chain composition of downstream sphingomyelins.2[1], 5[2]

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites related through biology

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

The gene SGPP1 regulates the levels of sphingosine-1-phosphate, a key signaling molecule in lipid metabolism.1[1], 2[2] Alterations in SGPP1 function likely impact the overall sphingolipid pool, including various sphingomyelin species, which is reflected in the ratio and associated with disorders of lipoprotein metabolism, triglycerides, and HbA1c levels.6[3], 7[4], 8[5]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:SGPP1
