Ependymal cells
The nervous tissue that lines the cavities of the brain and spinal cord is formed by ependymal cells. These ciliated cells are part of the neuroglia and play a crucial role in producing and circulating cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) within the ventricles of the brain and the central canal of the spinal cord. The movement of CSF helps to cushion the brain, remove waste, and distribute nutrients.
Ependymal cells are arranged in single-palisade arrays and line the ventricles of the brain and central canal of the spinal cord. They are usually ciliated, their cilia extending into the ventricular cavity.
Ependyma
Ependymal cells are neuroglial cells that help produce and circulate cerebrospinal fluid in the brain and spinal cord. They line the ventricles of the brain and the central canal of the spinal cord, playing a crucial role in maintaining the fluid balance in the central nervous system.
Ependymal cells line the central canal of the spinal cord
responsible for the lining of ventricular cavities (of brain). Other than the above-mentioned function, they also line the central canal of spinal cord. It is involved in the production of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF).
Yes, ependymal cells line the inner cavities of the central nervous system (CNS). They are cuboidal to columnar cells that form the ependymal layer of the ventricles in the brain and the central canal of the spinal cord. These cells are involved in producing cerebrospinal fluid and providing a barrier between the fluid compartments of the CNS.
ependymal cells
Ependymal cells are ciliated neuroglia that line the ventricles of the brain and the central canal of the spinal cord. They play a crucial role in helping to circulate cerebrospinal fluid throughout the central nervous system.
The H-shaped grey matter of the spinal cord contains motor neurons that control movement, smaller interneurons that handle communication within and between the segments of the spinal cord, and cells that receive sensory signals and then send information up to centers in the brain.
"Ependymal cells"form a single layer of epithelial cells that line the CSF-filled ventricles (in the brain) and the central canal (of spinal cord). They are ciliated simple cuboidal epithelium.
They begin in the very thin membranes that help form cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and line the brain cavities (ventricles) that contain it
