Neuroglia
·noun The delicate connective tissue framework which supports the nervous matter and blood vessels of the brain and spinal cord.
Glia
Glia, also called glial cells (gliocytes) or neuroglia, are non-neuronal cells in the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and the peripheral nervous system that do not produce electrical impulses. They maintain homeostasis, form myelin in the peripheral nervous system, and provide support and protection for neurons.
glia
['gl???, 'gli:?]
¦ noun Anatomy the connective tissue of the nervous system, consisting of several different types of cell associated with neurons.
Derivatives
glial adjective
Origin
C19: from Gk, lit. 'glue'.
Wikipedia
Glia
Glia, also called glial cells (gliocytes) or neuroglia, are non-neuronal cells in the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and the peripheral nervous system that do not produce electrical impulses. The neuroglia make up more than one half the volume of neural tissue in our body. They maintain homeostasis, form myelin in the peripheral nervous system, and provide support and protection for neurons. In the central nervous system, glial cells include oligodendrocytes, astrocytes, ependymal cells, and microglia, and in the peripheral nervous system they include Schwann cells and satellite cells.
