LLM Analysis

Numerator Metabolite Explanation:

Xenobiotic metabolism, Fatty acid beta-oxidation.2[1], 3[2]

Denominator Metabolite Explanation:

Fatty acid omega-oxidation.4[1]

Ratio Explanation:

The ratio may indicate altered fatty acid metabolism, where THEM4-mediated handling of an unusual fatty acid changes relative to the omega-oxidation pathway.

Ratio Evidence:

metabolites related through biology

Gene Ratio Phenotype Relationship:

Genetic variation at the THEM4 locus, supported by eQTL colocalization, likely alters its expression, modifying intestinal fatty acid metabolism. This metabolic shift, reflected by the ratio, may contribute to the inflammation or mucosal barrier dysfunction underlying diverticular disease.5[1], 6[2]

Phenotype Driver:

Gene-centric:THEM4
