A new drug is developed that prevents the demyelination occurring in the progress of multiple sclerosis. The drug protects the cells responsible for the synthesis and maintenance of myelin in the central nervous system. These cells are most likely which of the following? (A) Astrocyte (B) Ependymal cell (C) Microglial cell Oligodendrocyte (E) Schwann cell
Match the neuroglia with the correct function: A. Satellite cells B. Schwann Cells C. Oligodendrocytes D. Ependymal E. Microglia F. Astrocytes   1. Cells that produce the myelin in the PNS. 2. Cells that produce myelin in the CNS 3. Phagocytes that dispose debris like dead brain cells and bacteria 4. Anchors and braces neurons with cellular projections 5. Cells have cilia that help circulate the cerebrospinal fluid  6. Cells help cushion and protect neurons in the PNS 7. Cells serve as a medium for diffusion between capillaries and neurons 8. Cells line cavities of the brain and spinal cord
