NEUROGLIAL CELLS \ GLIAL CELLS Flashcards
1
Q
What are neuroglial cells ?
A
they are the non excitable cells present in the CNS and form more than half of the neural tissue.
2
Q
What are the types of the neuroglial cell ?
A
- Astrocytes \ macroglial cells
- Oligodendrocytes
- Microglial cell \ microcytes
3
Q
What are Astrocytes \ macroglial cells ?
A
- Star shaped , largest and the most abundant glial cells.
2. Function - Protect an repair nervous tissue and form blood brain barrier
4
Q
What are Oligodendrocytes ?
A
- Oligo - few , dendro - processes , cyte - cells
2. Form myelin sheath in CNS because neurilemma is absent in CNS.
5
Q
What are Microglial cell \ microcytes ?
A
Smallest mesodermal and phagocytic glial cells.
6

Bundle of neuron surrounded by 3 CT membrane namely :-
- Endoneurium
- Perineurium
- Epineurium
