: They regulate neurotransmitter levels and support neuronal health.

Depending on whether you are looking for information on biology or technology, 1. Biology: Glial Cells (The "Glue" of the Brain)

: Glia actively help induce and eliminate synapses.

: Line the brain's ventricles and produce cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) . Key Functions:

: Form the myelin sheath around axons to speed up electrical signals. Oligodendrocytes work in the central nervous system (CNS), while Schwann cells are in the peripheral nervous system (PNS).

: Act as the brain’s immune system, scavenging pathogens and dead cells.

: Provide nutrients to neurons, maintain the extracellular environment, and provide structural support.
