During the past 15 years, increasing studies have been devoted to glial cells, i.e. oligodendrocytes, astrocytes and microglial cells of the central nervous system. Although most of their functions remain mysterious, the concept of intracellular interactions between neurons and neuroglia becomes more and more substantiated. This review describes some aspects of phylogeny of glia, recent technical approaches to the study of these cells, their major morphological and biochemical characteristics, their maturation as well as their pathology.
在过去的15年里，越来越多的研究致力于神经胶质细胞，即中枢神经系统中的少突胶质细胞、星形胶质细胞和小胶质细胞。尽管它们的大多数功能仍然神秘，但神经元与神经胶质细胞之间细胞内相互作用的概念越来越得到证实。这篇综述描述了神经胶质细胞系统发育的一些方面、研究这些细胞的最新技术方法、它们的主要形态和生化特征、它们的成熟过程以及它们的病理学。
