General Information
Term ensheathing glial cell ID (Ontology) FBbt:00047836 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Polarized glial cell with a flattened cell body that forms a sheath around the synaptic and tract neuropil regions (Hartenstein, 2011; Pogodalla et al., 2021). They may serve a homologous function to the wrapping glia, which ensheath the peripheral nerves (Kremer et al., 2017).[ FlyBase:FBrf0214261 FlyBase:FBrf0234767 FlyBase:FBrf0239943 FlyBase:FBrf0251788 ]
Also Known As "EG" ; "ensheathing neuropil associated glial cell"
