General Information
Term adult astrocyte-like glial cell ID (Ontology) FBbt:00047841 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Neuropil associated glial cell of the adult central nervous system that has a dendritic morphology and elaborates inside the associated synaptic neuropil (Awasaki et al., 2008). Their nuclei are found at synaptic neuropil surfaces and they extend branched filiform or lamelliform processes that pervade the neuropil (Hartenstein, 2011).[ FlyBase:FBrf0206543 FlyBase:FBrf0207750 FlyBase:FBrf0214261 FlyBase:FBrf0225669 ]
Also Known As"adult ALG" ; "adult astrocyte" ; "adult astrocyte-like neuropil associated glial cell" (for all, see Synonyms field below)
