Summary Introduction

To explain:

The type of glial cells replicates in response to the infection.

Concept introduction:

A neuron comprises the cell body, nerve fibers: dendrites, and an axon in its structure. Neural tissue involves two types of cells: neurons and neuroglia. Neuroglia is the supporting cells of the nervous system. Microglial, oligodendrocytes, ependymal, and astrocytes cells are types of neuroglia cells that are found in CNS. Satellite and Schwann cells are the neuroglia cells that are located in PNS. These cells protect the neurons from damage and provide a protected environment.
