TL;DR
Injection of d -amphetamine into rats caused a rapid reduction of norepinephrine content in brain; repletion occurred within 72 hr; dopamine content of the brain was not affected.
Abstract
Injection of d-amphetamine into rats caused a rapid reduction of norepinephrine content in brain; repletion occurred within 72 hr. Dopamine content of the brain was not affected. Restraint did not enhance the d-amphetamine-induced release of norepinephrine.

Dopamin kommt im Gehirn aller untersuchten Säugetiere ausschliesslich im Corpus striatum vor, welche den Dopamingehalt der Basalganglien beeinflussen, und die Lokalisation von Dopamin im GehIRn sprechen dafür, dass Dopamsehalt für die Funktion wirklich von Bedeutung ist.

It is suggested that the sensitivity to the various factors induced by these substances is a function of their capacity to stimulate the central nervous system, and that a variety of factors modify the toxicity by altering the degree of central nervous excitation or its opportunities of discharge.

In rat brain chlorpromazine and chlorprothixene did not affect the content of endogenous 5-hydroxytryptamine, dopamine and norepinephrine, but the drugs counteracted the following changes in the monoamine content.

The effect of pretreatment of rabbit with methamphetamine or cocaine on the catecholamine depleting action of reserpine was studied and it was suggested that the depletion of catechlamine in the peripheral organs by, reser Pine was derived from two mechanisms: the biochemical effect and the central effect.
