What is "glial cells"

Usage examples of "glial cells".

There are also some ten times as many glial cells of several kinds, which serve supporting and subsidiary functions.

Telomod therapy might recondition the glial cells of the brain, but too many neurons are already dead for restoration of mental functions.

They link up with glial cells to regulate the firing of nerve cells.

A small number of neurons and glial cells could be removed from the brain without harm, regressed to an embryonic state, multiplied in tissue culture, then reinjected into the damaged region.

For every neuron in the brain there are roughly ten glial cells (from the Greek word for glue), which provide the scaffolding for the neuronal architecture.

Your nerves grow new connections as you use them -- the axons split and push their way between the dividing glial cells -- your bioware selfmodifies -- the software becomes part of the hardware.

They thicken the connections between the brain nuclei, the glial cells, and the neurones.

There is so much we do not know: How do neurons and glial cells influence each other?
