The coronary artery supplies the arterial blood that contains oxygen and nutrients for the myocardial tissue to produce high-energy phosphates aerobically. The left anterior descending and circumflex coronary arteries run on the epicardial surface of the left ventricle, turn toward the endocardium at a right angle, and nourish the tissues of the subendocardinal layers with the arterial blood. Cessation of coronary blood flow makes the myocardium ischemic. The endocardium is particularly susceptible to ischemia because the arteries that run to the endocardium are pressed due to extravascular compression during every systole. Coronary vasodilators are still used as anti-anginal drugs. However, a potent coronary vasodilator may cause coronary-steal and thereby worsen the ischemia-induced myocardial injury. We will demonstrate changes in the microcirculation of the ischemic myocardium caused by coronary vasodilators and demonstrate that a coronary vasodilator is not always effective on the ischemic myocardium.
