LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid beta-oxidation

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid metabolism, carnitine shuttle4[1], 5[2], 6[3]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio of hexadecadienoate to acetylcarnitine reflects carnitine-dependent fatty acid oxidation efficiency, which is modulated by the SLC22A5 carnitine transporter.

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites related through biology

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Genetic variants near SLC22A5, a carnitine transporter, alter its function, impacting carnitine-dependent fatty acid oxidation.1[1], 7[2] This metabolic disruption likely affects energy homeostasis in hematopoietic and immune cells, leading to observed variations in neutrophil, platelet, and other blood cell counts.8[3], 9[4], 10[5]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:SLC22A5
