LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty Acid Dicarboxylate Pathway4[1]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid biosynthesis5[1]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio of tetradecadienedioate to stearate may reflect the balance between fatty acid synthesis and its subsequent desaturation and oxidation, influenced by SCD activity.6[1], 7[2]

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites related through biology

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Reduced SCD activity can alter the balance of saturated to unsaturated fatty acids, a state implicated in atherosclerosis, dyslipidemia, and myocardial infarction.2[1], 8[2] This aligns with the observed cardiovascular phenotypes, suggesting that genetic variants affecting SCD function are causally linked to heart disease.

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:SCD
