adult distal medulla astrocyte-like glial cell [FBbt_00111365]

Astrocyte-like glial cell of the distal adult medulla. Its cell body lies at the posterior edge of the distal medulla, with irregular branches that extend into medulla columns as deep as the serpentine layer (M7). Other branches extend in a centrifugal direction, along chiasmal axons or glia that approach from the lamina.
