Ischemic heart disease is the leading cause of morbidity and
mortality in the developed world. The high metabolism and oxygen
demand of the cardiac myocardium depends on both a high blood flow
and a rich capillary density. For this reason, the growth of the
coronary vasculature is vital, not only in early development, but
also in the adult faced with various stresses. Novel technologies
have enabled the discovery of the molecular mechanisms underlying
the growth and assembly coronary vessels, and this volume covers
the hierarchy of the coronary vasculature from its embryonic
origins through its postnatal growth, adulthood, and senescence.
Chapters address normal coronary development, coronary anomalies
and their possible underlying developmental errors, coronary vessel
adaptations to exercise training, aging, hypoxia, myocardial
ischemia, and cardiac hypertrophy. This comprehensive overview of
current research in coronary vessels and myocardial perfusion was
written by Dr. Robert J. Tomanek, Emeritus Professor of Anatomy and
Cell Biology at the University of Iowa. The book reviews,
discusses, and integrates findings from various areas of coronary
vasculature research, and as a result, will be a valuable reference
source for cardiovascular scientists and physicians for many years
to come.
