LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Sphingolipid metabolism.4[1], 5[2], 6[3]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Sphingolipid metabolism.7[1], 8[2], 9[3]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio reflects the balance in sphingolipid metabolism, influenced by SGPP1, which modulates the precursors for both ceramide and sphingomyelin synthesis.1[1], 10[2]

Ratio Evidence:

reaction where the ratio is shared through a pathway

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Altered SGPP1 function dysregulates sphingolipid metabolism, which is linked to insulin resistance and dyslipidemia.11[1], 12[2], 13[3] This dysregulation is reflected in the metabolite ratio and associated with lipoprotein disorders, and changes in triglycerides and HbA1c levels.14[4], 15[5], 16[6]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:SGPP1
