neurons
Individual cells in the nervous system that receive, integrate, and transmit information.
neuroglial cells "nerve glue"
various cells that are found in the brain and spinal cord that provide physical support, insulation, and nutrients for neurons.
In this picture the big cell is the neuron, and the little dots are these other "care-taking" cells
Astrocytes ("star cells")
*most abundant brain cell
*form blood-brain barrier by wrapping around capillaries
*modify and affect synaptic function
*modify and regulate myelination
*monitor electrolytes around neurons
microglia ("small glue")
macrophage of the brain
Oligodendrocytes ("some finger cells")
Type of glial cell in the CNS that wrap axons in a myelin sheath.
Schwann cells
Supporting cells of the peripheral nervous system responsible for the formation of myelin.
Ependymal cells
ciliated cells that line the ventricles of the brain and spinal cord, circulate cerebrospinal fluid
