What (who) is GANGLIA - definition

NERVE CELL CLUSTER OR A GROUP OF NERVE CELL BODIES LOCATED IN THE AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM AND SENSORY SYSTEM; GANGLIA HOUSE THE CELLS BODIES OF AFFERENT NERVES AND EFFERENT NERVES
Ganglia; Preganglionic cell; Gangleon; Preganglionic neurons; Postgangionic; Ganglioid; Semibrain; Ganglionic; Pseudoganglion; Ganglium; Pseudoganglia
  • A dorsal root ganglion (DRG) from a chicken embryo (around stage of day 7) after incubation overnight in NGF growth medium stained with anti-neurofilament antibody. Note the axons growing out of the ganglion.

BRAIN DISEASE THAT IS CHARACTERIZED BY DYSFUNCTION OF THE BASAL GANGLIA WHICH HELP START AND CONTROL MOVEMENT
Basal ganglia diseases; Basal ganglia calcification
Basal ganglia disease is a group of physical problems that occur when the group of nuclei in the brain known as the basal ganglia fail to properly suppress unwanted movements or to properly prime upper motor neuron circuits to initiate motor function. Research indicates that increased output of the basal ganglia inhibits thalamocortical projection neurons.

Ganglion

A ganglion is a group of neuron cell bodies in the peripheral nervous system. In the somatic nervous system this includes dorsal root ganglia and trigeminal ganglia among a few others. In the autonomic nervous system there are both sympathetic and parasympathetic ganglia which contain the cell bodies of postganglionic sympathetic and parasympathetic neurons respectively.

A pseudoganglion looks like a ganglion, but only has nerve fibers and has no nerve cell bodies.
