Glia
DEFINITION 9 Glial cells, sometimes called neuroglia or simply glia, are non-neuronal cells that maintain homeostasis, form myelin, and provide support and protection for neurons in the brain, and for neurons in other parts of the nervous system such as in the autonomic nervous system.regulatory, maintenanceastrocytes, oligodendrocytes, and microglia TERM 10
Microglia
DEFINITION 10 Microglia are a type of glial cell that are the resident macrophages of the brain and spinal cord, and thus act as the first and main form of active immune defense in the central nervous system.Macrophages, non-specific immunity
