General Information
Term adult synaptic neuropil ensheathing glial cell ID (Ontology) FBbt:00049490 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Glial cell of the adult central nervous system that elaborates along the outer surface of a synaptic neuropil region (Kremer et al., 2017). These cells vary in morphology as they ensheath and project complex and fine protrusions into the neuropil domains (Kremer et al., 2017).[ FlyBase:FBrf0234767 ]
Also Known As "adult EGN" ; "adult neuropile-ensheathing glial cell"
