To meet these challenges, it is necessary to develop new models of venous thrombosis and acute pulmonary embolism in different animal species, with the assessment of the changes in the venous haemodynamics and pulmonary microcirculation on the background of administration of a new class of fibrinolytic agents. The purpose of the study was to determine the level of substances damaging the vascular endothelium, as well as to assess their effect on the functional state of the endothelium and the course of obliterating atherosclerosis of lower limb arteries. The study included a total of 112 people, subdivided into three groups those with an unfavourable course of obliterating atherosclerosis of lower limbs arteries (n=48) - group 1, patients with obliterating atherosclerosis of lower limbs arteries with a conventionally favourable course (n=48) - group 2, and apparently healthy volunteers (n=16). In all subjects, the following parameters were analysed stable metabolites of nitric oxide II, endothelin-1, homocysteine and basal insulin. The level of stable nitric oxide metabolites (p<0.001 as compared with group 1; p<0.045 compared with group 2) was lower in the groups of patients with obliterating atherosclerosis of lower limb arteries (88.5±7.3 μmol/L in group 1; 161.5±8.6 μmol/L in group 2) as compared wiherosclerosis of lower limb arteries (24.9±4.6 mIU/L in group 1; 8.0±0.7 mIU/L in group 2) than in healthy volunteers (5.1±0.5 mIU/L). Statistically significant (p<0.001) hyperinsulinemia was observed in group 1 as compared with group 2. Hyperhomocysteinemia and hyperinsulinemia are predictors of an unfavour
