All these cells function in concert with each other, producing the remarkably diverse functions of the nervous system.Īstrocyte Microglia Myelin Neuron Oligodendrocyte. Microglia are the resident immune cells, providing immune surveillance and remodeling of neuronal circuits during development and trauma. Oligodendrocytes form the myelin sheath which surrounds axons and enables rapid conduction of the nerve impulse. Astrocytes have a dazzling array of functions including physical support, maintenance of homeostasis, development and integration of synaptic activity. The CNS has various centers located within it that carry out the sensory, motor and integration of data. The CNS includes the brain and spinal cord. Facilitating these functions are cohorts of supporting cells consisting of astrocytes, oligodendrocytes and microglia along with NG2 cells and ependymal cells. The nervous system is comprised of two major parts, or subdivisions, the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The output domain is the axon which is a singular extension from the cell body that propagates the action potential to the synapse, where signals pass from one neuron to another.

The brain is divided into four main parts: (1) the brain stem, consisting of the medulla, pons, and midbrain (2) the cerebellum (3) the diencephalon, with the thalamus and hypothalamus and (4) the cerebral. Each neuron is composed of an input domain consisting of multiple dendrites along with the cell body, which is also responsible for the majority of macromolecule synthesis for the cell. The nervous system can be divided into the peripheral and central nervous systems (PNS and CNS respectively). The fundamental unit of the nervous system is the neuron, which forms complex circuits that receive and integrate information and generate adaptive responses.

The central nervous system is the last major organ system in the vertebrate body to yield its cellular structure, due to the complexity of its cells and their interactions.
