Adult Glial cell Nervous system
Glial cell that is part of the adult. Subtypes generally tend to tile, minimizing contact with their glial neighbors and maximizing contact with their neuronal compartment (Kremer et al., 2017. They also do not seem to recognize particular neurons or neuropils; sometimes one glial cell has partial coverage of multiple units and multiple glial cells may tile across the same unit (Kremer et al., 2017. (Hartenstein, 2011, Kremer et al., 2017, Awasaki et al., 2008)
