LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Sphingolipid metabolism, Ceramide synthesis.5[1], 6[2]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Sphingolipid metabolism, Ceramide synthesis.5[1], 6[2]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio reflects the balance between different sphingomyelin species, comparing those with C24 fatty acids to those with C22 or other fatty acids.

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites related through biology

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Altered ISM1 function likely modulates sphingolipid metabolism, impacting the composition of sphingomyelins.4[1], 7[2] This change in specific sphingomyelin species can affect bile composition and lipoprotein structure, increasing the risk of cholelithiasis and dyslipidemia.6[3], 8[4], 9[5]

Phenotype Driver:

Metabolite-centric[sphingomyelin]
