Please clarify! In fact, there is no actual "connective tissue" per se. Perhaps synapse is the straight answer to your question? Neurons are separated in the brain by very, very tiny gaps.
Information, if you will, is transmitted between the neurons and the nerves they respond to, by means of tiny electrical signals generated in each synapse, then released into the tiny space between neurons. The signals are created in the brain, for this purpose, of what are called neurotransmitters.
Neurotransmitter ---> "--noun
any of several chemical substances, as epinephrine or acetylcholine, that transmit nerve impulses across a synapse to a postsynaptic element, as another nerve, muscle, or gland."
Hope this leads you to further your curiosity and to investigate deeper.

The least specialized connective tissue in the adult body is?
loose connective tissue
What are the specialized types of connective tissue?
Specialized connective tissue includes: Liquid (blood and lymph), bone (spongy and compact), and cartilage (hyaline, fibrous, and elastic).
What tissue types are found in the brain?
Mostly neurons and neuroglia. There is also cerebral spinal fluid (CSF), and the covering of connective tissue called meninges.
Nervous tissue is composed of cells called?
neurons
What are the characteristics of connective tissue?
Connective tissue contains specialized cells, extracellular protein fibers, ground substance (fluid) and matrix. Matrix is protein fibers and ground substance combined and it surrounds the specialized cells.
Are neurons and neuroglia found in connective tissue?
No, there are four types of tissue; muscular, epithelial, connective and nervous tissue. Neurons are categorised in the nervous tissue.
Nervous tissue contains specialized cells called?
Neurons are the conducting cells of nerve tissue. The neurons transmit the electrical charges and chemical signals via the synapses.
The least specialized connective tissue in the adult body is?
loose connective tissue
Are all type of connective tissue vascular?
Yes. Blood is a connective tissue, part of the specialized liquid connective tissue.
What is a tissue that connects tissue called?
Connective tissue binds and supports other tissue. Connective tissue are specialized even further to support cartilage, bone, fat, and even blood cells.
What are the specialized types of connective tissue?
Specialized connective tissue includes: Liquid (blood and lymph), bone (spongy and compact), and cartilage (hyaline, fibrous, and elastic).
Nervous tissue is made up of specialized units called?
Nervous tissue is made up of specialized units called nerve cells, or neurons. They detect different types of stimuli in the body.
What tissue types are found in the brain?
Mostly neurons and neuroglia. There is also cerebral spinal fluid (CSF), and the covering of connective tissue called meninges.
Is dentin the specialized connective tissue that forms the teeth?
yes
Nerve tissue is supported by specialized cells known as?
neurons
Are neurons created as a fetus functions?
Neurons grow in a fetus, just as any specialized type of tissue does.
A loose connective tissue in which cells are specialized for storage of triglycerides?
Adipose
