overlaps CNS glial cell neuropil glial cell FBbt:00001303 neuropil associated glial cell neuropil associated CNS glial cell neuropil-associated CNS glial cell Glial cell of the CNS that is associated with neuropil compartments, including synaptic and tract neuropil (Hartenstein, 2011; Omoto et al., 2015; Kremer et al., 2017). These cells have their cell bodies located in the neuropil glial sheath, between the neuropil and the cell body rind, and many of them extend processes into the neuropil (Hartenstein, 2011; Omoto et al., 2015). Two subtypes have been identified, the reticular (astrocyte-like) and ensheathing glia (Hartenstein, 2011; Omoto et al., 2015), which both function in ionic and neurotransmitter homeostasis (Kremer et al., 2017). fly_anatomy.ontology VFB:FBbt_00001303 neuropil-associated glial cell neuropile glial cell glial cell neuropil glial sheath
