Question
Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are drugs that can alleviate symptoms of depression
by blocking the reuptake of serotonin (5-HT) from the synaptic cleft, thereby increasing the amount
of time that 5-HT remains active. Elevated levels of 5-HT within the synapse are associated with
feelings of well-being; conversely, low levels of 5-HT are correlated with depressive symptoms.
Recent studies have shown that SSRIs can also mediate their antidepressant effects by increasing
brain levels of certain cytokines, including interferon gamma (IFNY). IFNY directly induces the
expression of the protein p11 in neighboring neurons, which then interacts with 5-HTR4, a 5-HT
transmembrane receptor. Figures 1 and 2 provide information about this interaction.

Studies have shown that analgesics, such as ibuprofen (IBU), inhibit the behavioral antidepressant
responses normally observed in mice undergoing chronic SSRI administration. Figure 3 shows the
effect of citalopram (CIT), an SSRI, and IBU on IFNY expression in mice. Figure 4 shows the effect of
IBU on p11 expression in the presence and absence of treatment with CIT. In both figures, VEH

necessary for antidepressant-induced increases in the
expression of p11?

treated with p11

treated with an SSRI
O C. wild-type mice treated with IFNY versus wild-type

The gene for red-green color blindness is recessive
and X-linked. What will be the expected phenotype of
the children of a color-blind woman and a man who
is not color-blind?
O A. All of the children will have normal color vision.
O B. All of the daughters will have normal color vision; all
the sons will be color-blind.
O C. All of the sons will have normal color vision; all the
daughters will be color-blind.
O D. Half of the daughters will have normal color vision,
and half of the daughters will be color-blind; all the
Isons will be color-blind.
