Descriptor oligodendroglía
Entry term(s) oligodendrocitos
oligodendroglia interfascicular
oligodendroglia perineuronal
Scope note: Una clase de grandes células neurogliales (macroglía) del sistema nervioso central. La oligodendroglía puede denominarse interfascicular, perivascular o células satélites perineuronales (no son las mismas que las CÉLULAS SATÉLITES PERINEURONALES de los GANGLIOS), de acuerdo a su localización. Estas células forman la VAINA DE MIELINA aislante en los axones del sistema nervioso central.

Scope note: A class of large neuroglial (macroglial) cells in the central nervous system. Oligodendroglia may be called interfascicular, perivascular, or perineuronal (not the same as SATELLITE CELLS, PERINEURONAL of GANGLIA) according to their location. They form the insulating MYELIN SHEATH of axons in the central nervous system.
