nebula
Science; Basic science
The cloud of dust and sand in space is called as nebula in general scientific terms.
postmitotic neuron
Science; Basic science
A postmitotic neuron is a neuron that has exited the cell cycle. After exiting the cell cycle, cells are considered immature neurons. Postmitotic neurons undergo the process of ...
neuroepithelial cells
Science; Basic science
Neuroepithelial cells are the "stem cells" of the nervous system, deriving from actual stem cells in several different stages of neural development. These neural stem cells then ...
radial glial cells
Science; Basic science
Radial glial cells are a widespread non-neuronal cell type in the developing CNS of all vertebrates examined so far. They were first identified as a transient population that ...
neural progenitor
Science; Basic science
A progenitor cell is a cell type that, like a stem cell, has a tendency to differentiate into a specific type of cell, but is already more specific than a stem cell and is pushed ...
adult neurogenesis
Science; Basic science
Adult neurogenesis, a process of generating functional neurons from adult neural precursors, occurs throughout life in restricted brain regions in mammals. These are the dentate ...
astrocyte
Science; Basic science
Astrocytes are specialized glial cells that outnumber neurons by over fivefold. They contiguously tile the entire central nervous system (CNS) and exert many essential complex ...
