Introduction: Marie-Unna hereditary hypotrichosis (MUHH) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by a specific pattern of hair loss. Initially described in 1925 by Marie-Unna in a German family spanning over seven generations, MUHH represents a previously unidentified form of congenital hypotrichosis. It typically presents as sparse hair at birth with a coarse texture, followed by regrowth during childhood then, finally, gradual hair loss at puberty, resembling pattern of androgenetic alopecia.

Increased sensitivity to androgens and androgen receptors is the underlying cause of androgenetic alopecia (AGA), a hereditary disease. Our study investigated the preventive effects of MitoQ on dihydrotestosterone (DHT)-induced mitochondrial dysfunction and subsequent hair loss from three perspectives: in vivo, in vitro, and network pharmacology. A mouse model of AGA was used to assess the effectiveness of MitoQ intervention.

The purpose of this research was to identify the role of keratin proteins in causing inherited as well as pathogenic alopecia, pinpoint deleterious SNPs, and predict structural changes affecting protein-protein interactions in hair disorders. To elucidate the role of keratin proteins and genetic mutations in alopecia by analyzing protein structures through bioinformatics and identifying a mutation in the LPAR6 gene. It sought to identify the microorganisms linked to alopecia and conducted a comprehensive bioinformatics analysis of proteins with unknown experimental structures and molecular simulation analysis.
