I thought this was interesting:
Gaster, Barak MD. St John's Wort for Depression: A Systematic Review. Archives of Internal Medicine. 160(2):152-156, January 24, 2000:
"Hypericum extract contains at least 10 substances that have been shown to have biological activity, including hypericin, pseudohypericin, xanthones, monoterpenes, [beta]-sitosterol, QUERCETIN, and catechin. Many of these substances have been shown to bind neuroreceptors in the brain and to inhibit the uptake of various neurotransmitters thought to be involved in depression."
