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).
The types of glial cells that line the central cavities of the brain and spinal cord are ependymal cells. These cells have cilia on their apical surface that help circulate the cerebrospinal fluid, which nourishes the brain and spinal cord while also helping to remove waste and maintain a stable environment.
Ependymal cells of the choroid plexus are found in all components of the ventricle system and produce cerebrospinal fluid.

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 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.
The four types in the CNS are microglia, astrocytes, ependymal, and oligodendrocytes. *microglia= phagocytes *astrocytes= form the blood brain barrier *ependymal= produce CSF (cerebral spinal fluid) *oligodendrocytes= form the myelin sheath that wraps around the axon

The four types of neuroglia in the central nervous system (CNS) are astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, microglia, and ependymal cells. Astrocytes provide structural support and regulate the chemical environment, oligodendrocytes produce myelin to insulate axons, microglia are the immune cells of the CNS, and ependymal cells line the ventricles and produce cerebrospinal fluid.
