LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Polyamine metabolism.5[1], 6[2], 7[3]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Methionine salvage, polyamine biosynthesis.8[1], 9[2], 10[3]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio may reflect SLC22A1 transport activity influencing the balance of polyamine synthesis, where MTA is a byproduct, and catabolism, which produces n-acetyl-isoputreanine.11[1], 10[2]

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites related through biology

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Reduced SLC22A1 expression alters its transport of substrates like polyamines and thiamine, impacting hepatic lipid and glucose metabolism.2[1], 12[2], 13[3] This metabolic dysregulation, reflected by the ratio, is associated with hypercholesterolaemia and other lipoprotein disorders.1[4], 12[5], 14[6]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:SLC22A1
