(1) glia cells(2) He showed that this was due primarily to the growth of more synapses and more nonneural supporting cells called glia .(3) Most of the bone marrow-derived cells in the brain tissue were glia (support cells) and other non-neuronal cells.(4) These factors play a pivotal role in brain development by direction the formation of neurons and supporting cells called glia from uncommitted progenitor cells.(5) The transplanted stem cells engrafted and differentiated into human neurons and glia that intermingled with host brain counterparts.(6) From human embryonic stem cells the company has produced the three types of brain cells, namely glia (glue cells), astrocytes (star cells) and oligodendrocytes (few branches cells).(7) The posterior lobe of the pituitary gland or neurohypophysis contains unique glial elements referred to as pituicytes.(8) It seems that the failure of the axons to regenerate is partly the result of an inhibitory effect exerted by central nervous system glial cells, associated with the myelin of nerve fibers.(9) Although the tumors are thought to arise from the posterior pituitary glial cells, none of the patients experienced diabetes insipidus at presentation.(10) In no case could disruption of the glial surface of the optic disc or other evidence of posterior vitreous displacement be identified.(11) Ependymal disruption with glial nodules was noted in the ventricular system.
