Angiogenic Therapy by Coronary Collateral Recruitment and Arteriogenesis

  • Chapter
Myocardial Ischemia and Preconditioning

Part of the book series: Progress in Experimental Cardiology ((PREC,volume 6))

Summary

Despite the rapid progress of coronary revascularization procedures, there are some patients with ischemic heart disease for whom catheter or surgical revascularizing procedures are not feasible because of the complicated coronary lesions. An alternative therapeutic option to conventional interventions is angiogenic therapy, which is defined as enhancement of collateral function by acute or chronic administration of some agents for the preservation of ischemic myocardium. Augmentation of collateral circulation is achieved by collateral recruitment and/or arteriogenesis. Promotion of collateral function in patients with intractable anginal pain, for whom no effective therapy exists, has many attractive features.
