LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Salicylic acid metabolism.3[1], 4[2]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Amino acid metabolism, Fatty acid metabolism.5[1], 6[2]

Ratio Explanation:

The SLC17A4 transporter may influence the levels of 2,6-dihydroxybenzoic acid (a salicylate metabolite) and 2-aminooctanoate, impacting their relative concentrations in circulation.7[1]

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites related through biology

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Altered SLC17A4 transporter function likely modifies urate excretion, directly affecting serum uric acid levels and associated phenotypes like MCHC and MCH.8[1], 9[2], 10[3] A link to hematological phenotypes could also be mediated via thyroid hormone transport.11[4], 12[5]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:SLC17A4
