LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Sphingolipid metabolism.7[1], 8[2]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Glycerophospholipid metabolism.9[1], 10[2], 11[3], 12[4], 13[5]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio reflects the balance between sphingomyelin and phosphatidylcholine pools, which can be influenced by FADS1's role in providing polyunsaturated fatty acid precursors.9[1], 3[2], 10[3], 14[4]

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites related through biology

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Genetic variants in FADS1 are linked to altered FADS1 expression and activity, influencing the balance of specific lipids.3[1], 4[2], 6[3], 14[4] This dyslipidemia, particularly affecting cholesterol and triglyceride levels, is associated with an increased risk for pure hypercholesterolemia and cholelithiasis.15[5], 14[6], 16[7]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:FADS1
