LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Glycerophospholipid metabolism, Phosphatidylcholine biosynthesis

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Sphingolipid metabolism, Dihydrosphingomyelin metabolism3[1], 4[2]

Ratio Explanation:

This ratio compares phosphatidylcholine, a major phospholipid, to a dihydrosphingomyelin. Its alteration, linked to ISM1, may reflect a shift in lipid homeostasis, affecting membrane composition and signaling.

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites related through biology

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Genetic variation near ISM1 is linked to cholelithiasis and alters levels of key bile components like phosphatidylcholine and sphingomyelin.5[1], 6[2] This dysregulation in lipid metabolism, evidenced by altered LDL-C and ALT, likely promotes gallstone formation.1[3], 7[4]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:ISM1
