Ensheathing glial cell
FBbt:00047836
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).
