Published: October 2015

A preterm infant presenting with a congenital cardiac malformation and thrombocytopenia was found to have a karyotype showing a terminal deletion of the long arm of chromosome 11 of the segment 11q24.1-11qter consistent with Jacobsen syndrome. The infant was later diagnosed with Paris-Trousseau syndrome, commonly associated with Jacobsen syndrome. Because children with cardiac malformations often require high-risk surgical procedures in the early neonatal period, those with platelet dysfunction require prompt identification at birth.

Background: Cholecystokinin (CCK) is secreted from the intestines in response to food intake. We previously reported that the CCK gene is also expressed in the mammalian heart, and it has been hypothesized that proCCK could be a novel cardiac biomarker. However, it is not known whether cardiac gene expression leads to secretion in humans.
