title: Central action of 6-aminodopamine.
abstract: 6-Aminodopamine (6-ADA) is a dopamine analog causing degeneration of peripheral adrenergic fibers. Given to the lateral cerebral ventricle in mice 6-ADA did not change the locomotor activity of animals. In doses 10-200 micrograms ivc 6-ADA depressed the noradrenaline level only in the cerebral cortex, while the level of dopamine was depressed also in the subcortical nuclei.
