LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

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

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Sphingolipid metabolism.8[1], 9[2]

Ratio Explanation:

none

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites not in a pathway but enzyme catalyzes one metabolite

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

The APOA1 pQTL colocalization suggests a causal link between APOA1 and the ratio. APOA1 is central to HDL metabolism and reverse cholesterol transport, processes in which sphingomyelins are involved.10[1], 11[2], 12[3] Dysregulation of both APOA1 and sphingolipids is associated with cardiovascular diseases, the observed phenotypes.13[4], 7[5], 14[6], 15[7]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:APOA1
