They are also commonly known as neuroglia and even more simply glia. In more detailed terms, neuroglia are cells in your nervous system that are not neurons. Their role is to be the support team and cheerleaders for the neurons. The neuroglia: Form myelin, which wraps around axons to speed up electric impulse conduction ; Provide nutrients to your neurons, including oxygen ; Destroy pathogens ; Provide a general support structure on which neurons can sit ; In this lesson, we will focus on the neuroglia located in your central nervous system.
Nervous tissue consists of two main types of cells: neurons and neuroglia. Nerve cells, or neurones (also written neurons). that move information around the body.Neuroglia are also known simply as glia and have various functions in support of nerve cells but. themselves.lia or Neuroglia are therefore sometimes referred to as the non-nervous cells of the nervous system. Their functions within the nervous system depend on the specific type of neuroglia: Types of Neuroglial Cell: 1  Astroglial Cell Astrocyte.
