Thanks Scott. The page that you gave me cited an article by Bottiglieri (http://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S0278584605002174), but the proper article to cite was probably another by the same author: http://jnnp.bmj.com/cgi/reprint/69/2/228
The makers of Deplin should find more evidence to supplement the correlations that are the ultimate justification for their claims about "triple-action monoamamine synthesis." Usually, correlations drawn from clinical trials are not used to determine a substance's mechanisms of action in the brain. I'm a bit skeptical here, but their claim is plausible.
