Objective - to identify the most accurate way of drugs endothelial protective properties evaluation. Material and methods. Blood endothelin-1 (E) and acetylcholine-induced endothelial dependent vasodilation (EDV) were measured for 9 months in type 2 diabetic patients receiving either metformin (MET) (group 1) or MET and liraglutide (LIR) (group 2). Results. E was normal in group 1 at baseline and decreased only with glycaemia decline, in group 2 it was primarily increased and declined independently on glycaemia dynamics. In both groups E normalized in 6 months. EDV was impaired primarily in groups 1 and 2 and normalized only in group 2 in 9 months. Conclusions. LIR improves endothelial function, independently on glycaemia. Dopplerography in more accurate in drugs endothelial protective effects evaluation than circulating markers.
