Dyskeratosis congenita (DC) is a severe inherited bone marrow failure syndrome with associated cutaneous and noncutaneous abnormalities. In most cases, the inheritance pattern is X-linked recessive, while autosomal dominant and autosomal recessive forms have been reported. Remarkably, all causative gene mutations identified to date share a link to telomere/telomerase biology. Moreover, dyskeratosis congenita is linked to defective ribosome biogenesis.

Pulmonary fibrosis and/or bone marrow failure, telomere-related (PFBMFT) is also known as human telomere biology disorders, or short telomere syndromes. PFBMFT is a group of hereditary disorders caused by inherited loss-of-function mutations in telomere associated genes. It has a wide phenotypic spectrum that include bone marrow failure, pulmonary and liver fibrosis, mucocutaneous fragility, and predisposition to myelodysplastic syndromes and cancer.
