Summary Introduction

To determine:

The type of glial cells that replicate during meningitis condition.

Introduction:

The different glial cells present in the central nervous system are astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, microglial cells, and ependymal cells. These cells perform various functions in the central nervous system of human beings.

Cells that produce myelin in the CNS 3. Phagocytes that dispose debris like dead brain cells and bacteria 4. Anchors and braces neurons with cellular projections 5. Cells have cilia that help circulate the cerebrospinal fluid  6. Cells help cushion and protect neurons in the PNS 7. Cells serve as a medium for diffusion between capillaries and neurons 8.
