Astrocytes are the most abundant CNS neuroglia
Microglial cells are defensive cells in the CNS.
Ependymal cells line cerebrospinalfluid-filled cavities.
Oligodendrocytes have processes that formmyelin sheaths around CNS nerve fibers.
Satellite cells and Schwann cells (which formmyelin) surround neurons in the PNS.

Myelinsheath
Schwann cellcytoplasm
A Schwann cellenvelops an axon.
The Schwann cell thenrotates around the axon,wrapping its plasmamembrane loosely aroundit in successive layers.
The Schwann cellcytoplasm is forced frombetween the membranes.The tight membranewrappings surroundingthe axon form the myelinsheath.
