LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Plasmalogen biosynthesis, PUFA metabolism.3[1], 4[2]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Glycerophospholipid metabolism, PUFA metabolism.5[1], 6[2]

Ratio Explanation:

This ratio reflects FADS enzyme activity, contrasting the production of arachidonic acid (20:4) for plasmalogen synthesis against the availability of a-linolenic acid (18:3).1[1], 7[2], 8[3], 9[4]

Ratio Evidence:

reaction where the ratio is shared through a pathway

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

FADS1/FADS2 genetic variants alter polyunsaturated fatty acid metabolism, reflected in the ratio.2[1], 10[2] This dysregulation, particularly of pro-inflammatory arachidonic acid, likely contributes to the pathophysiology of associated inflammatory and metabolic diseases like cholelithiasis, inflammatory bowel disease, and type 2 diabetes.11[3], 12[4], 13[5]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:FADS1/FADS2
