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.
Examples of use of ganglion
1. She isolated a permanent, transformed rat Retinal Ganglion Cell (RGC) culture to study how the eye‘s retinal cells die.
2. The planned surgery involves planting a three–millimetre solar–powered microchip near the ganglion cell layer of the retina.
3. The death of retinal ganglion cells by a process called "apoptosis" causes damage to the optic nerve and prevents connections with the brain required for sight, resulting in blindness.
4. Then, paediatric surgeon Dr V M Reges saw biopsy reports and realized an ileostomy was not needed at all. ‘‘Hirschsprung’s Disease occurs when the large intestine lacks ganglion cells at its end, causing it to contract and block the passage of stools out of it,’’ said Rege.
