In particular, CLIC1 has previously been identified as associated with schizophrenia (The Autism Spectrum Disorders Working Group of The Psychiatric Genomics Consortium, 2017), autism (The Autism Spectrum Disorders Working Group of The Psychiatric Genomics Consortium, 2017), MDD (Zhu et al., 2019), post-traumatic stress disorder (Marchese et al., 2021), neuroticism (Baselmans et al., 2019) and depressive phenotypes (Baselmans et al., 2019). This evidence concerns the gene CLIC1 and autism spectrum disorder.
