WHAT DOES NEUROGLIAL MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Neuroglia

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 peripheral nervous system. As the Greek name implies, glia are commonly known as the glue of the nervous system; however, this is not fully accurate. Neuroscience currently identifies four main functions of glial cells: ▪ To surround neurons and hold them in place ▪ To supply nutrients and oxygen to neurons ▪ To insulate one neuron from another ▪ To destroy pathogens and remove dead neurons. For over a century, it was believed that the neuroglia did not play any role in neurotransmission. However 21st century neuroscience has recognized that glial cells do have some effects on certain physiological processes like breathing, and in assisting the neurons to form synaptic connections between each other.
