Previously assumed to just hold things together, researchers understand know that glial cells protect the brain from infection and facilitate communication between neurons.

What is a glial cell?

Glial cells, also known as glia or neuroglia, are non-neuronal cells found in the central and peripheral nervous systems that offer physical as well as metabolic support to neurons, including neuronal insulation through communication, as well as feed and waste transfer.

Where can you find glial cells?

Glial cells can be found in both the central and peripheral nervous systems (PNS). Astrocytes, microglia, oligodendrocytes, radial glial cells, and ependymal cells are the most important CNS glial cells. The PNS includes Schwann cells, enteric glial cells, and satellite glial cells.

How can you increase the number of glial cells in the brain?

Aerobic activities such as jogging, cycling, swimming, and even sex are good neurogenesis boosters. The goal is to regularly get the heart pounding for even more than 20 minutes at a time. Several growth hormones are increased in the brain during this state.
