This chapter supports SDG 9, 11, and 7 by discussing the integration of digital twins to enable urban stakeholders to make informed decisions, ensuring that buildings are optimized for both energy efficiency and occupant well-being, thus advancing the goals of sustainable urban development.
Microglia are immune cells of the central nervous system, playing a vital role in brain development, homeostasis, and disease. When these cells become dysfunctional, they can contribute to various psychiatric disorders and neurodegenerative diseases. To enhance our understanding of microglial function, researchers are increasingly employing human cell-based models. This approach significantly improves our investigations into these complex conditions and aids in ongoing drug development efforts.

The article investigates the role of CD38, an enzyme implicated in neuroinflammation and cellular senescence, in the context of vascular dementia (VaD). It demonstrates that inhibiting CD38 can mitigate cerebrovascular endothelial cell dysfunction, blood-brain barrier disruption, neuroinflammation, and white matter damage, ultimately alleviating cognitive impairment in a mouse model of VaD. The findings suggest that targeting CD38 may offer a promising therapeutic strategy for addressing the vascular and neurological deficits associated with VaD
