Introduction. Despite the major successes achieved in the treatment of acute coronary syndromes (ACS), acute myocardial infarction (AMI) remains the main cause of death among the working-age population of Ukraine. The means of treatment of interventional cardiology can actually reduce the mortality of patients with ACS, improve the course of the acute period of the disease and ensure less reduction in the functional capabilities of the heart in the future. Among the many pathogenetic mechanisms of vascular inflammation in coronary heart disease and type 2 diabetes, endothelial dysfunction is the determining factor. The aim of the study. To evaluate the levels of plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1, asymmetric dimethylarginine and endothelial nitric oxide synthase on the 10-14th day in patients depending on the presence or absence of concomitant diabetes type 2 and the type of reperfusion therapy. Materials and methods. 130 patients with acute myocardial infarction were examined, who were divided into 2 groups: 1 group consisted of patients with acute myocardial infarction with accompanying type 2 diabetes (n=73), 2 group – patients with acute myocardial infarction without type 2 diabetes (n =57). The quantitative content of the plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1) was determined by the immunoenzymatic method using a commercial test system manufactured by Technoclone PAI-1 ELISA Kit (Austria), endothelial nitric oxide synthase (NOS) – Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) Kit For Nitric Oxide Synthase Endothelial, asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) – Immunodiagnostik ADMA ELISA Kit (Austria). Results. Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) contributes to a more significant decrease in the content of the marker of endothelial dysfunction – ADMA and an increase in NOS on the 10-14th day of acute myocardial infarction in comparison with standard therapy. During PCI, the level of PAI-1 did not reliably change during treatment due to post-inflammatory and post-traumatic activation of platelets in the vascular wall. Conclusions. In patients with acute myocardial infarction with type 2 diabetes mellitus, percutaneous coronary intervention contributes to a significant decrease in the content of asymmetric dimethylarginine and an increase in NOS on the 10-14th day of acute myocardial infarction, but was not accompanied by a significant decrease in the level of PAI-1, which in general indicates positive effect of performed myocardial revascularization.
