Interestingly, FOXP1 was associated with both height (PfastBAT = 1.7 × 10−9) and SCZ (PfastBAT = 3.8 × 10−12), consistent with previous evidence that de novo mutations in FOXP1 cause intellectual disability, autism, and language impairment in humans18, that increased gene expression level of FOXP1 in autism patients19, and that Foxp1 deletion impairs neuronal development and causes autistic-like behaviour in mice20. This evidence concerns the gene FOXP1 and autism.
