types of neuroglia
Ependymal cells
Protoplasmic astrocytes
Fibrous astrocytes
Oligodendroglia (perineuronal, interfascicular and perivascular)
Microglia
4
functions of neuroglia
Control environment within the CNS
Shuttle nutritive molecules from blood vessels to neurons
Remove waste products
Maintains the electrochemical surroundings of neurons
Metabolism of neurotransmitters
Guide developing neurons to correct locations in early development; in adult, provide structural support for nerve cells
5
Pseudounipolar
Fine Nissl bodies uniformly dispersed in cytoplasm
Presence of numerous satellite cells/amphicytes
Associated with myelinated fibers
Sensory
dorsal root ganglion cell
6
Multipolar
Intermediate sized Nissl bodies at periphery
Few satellite cells
Associated with unmyelinated nerve fibers
Motor
Autonomic ganglion
7

20
INJURY TO NEURONS (CNS)
Neurons unable to regenerate except at hippocampal region
Area of injury filled up with astrocytic scar
Astrocytes proliferate in a random fashion and do not form a pathway to guide axonal sprouts
21
INJURY TO NEURONS (PNS)
Axonal regeneration possible with compression injury and neuronal cell body survive
Schwann cells proliferate and form bands of Bungner to guide distally growing axonal sprouts
22
TYPES OF SYNAPSE
Axo-dendritic
Axosomatic
Axo-axonicA
23
Type of neurons according to length of processes
Golgi cell type I
Golgi cell type II
24
Axonal Transport by Microtubules
Anterograde or orthograde transport-
Retrograde transport-
25
Axonal Transport by Microtubules
from cell body to terminals; fast and slow transport; based on action of protein kinesin
Anterograde or orthograde transport-
