Glial Cells: Neuroglia
In the human brain glial cells are as abundant as neurons. The relative number of glial cells has increased with increasing complexity of the central... -
Immune and Glial Cells in Pain and Their Interactions with Nociceptive Neurons
While pain is sensed and conducted by neurons, including primary sensory neurons (nociceptors) and spinal cord pain transmission neurons, mounting... -
Glial Cells During the Life Cycle
Astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, and oligodendrocyte precursor cells have a lifelong close relationship with each other and with neurons. Radial glia... -
MiR-155-5p Aggravated Astrocyte Activation and Glial Scarring in a Spinal Cord Injury Model by Inhibiting Ndfip1 Expression and PTEN Nuclear Translocation
Central nervous injury and regeneration repair have always been a hot and difficult scientific questions in neuroscience, such as spinal cord injury...
