Difference between Macrophage and Neuroglia

Macrophage vs. Neuroglia

Macrophages (big eaters, from Greek μακρός (makrós). Neuroglia, also called glial cells or simply glia, are non-neuronal cells in the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and the peripheral nervous system.

Similarities between Macrophage and Neuroglia

Macrophage and Neuroglia have 8 things in common (in Unionpedia): Apoptosis, Central nervous system, Cytoplasm, Homeostasis, Microglia, Oxygen, Pathogen, Phagocytosis.

Apoptosis

Apoptosis (from Ancient Greek ἀπόπτωσις "falling off") is a process of programmed cell death that occurs in multicellular organisms.

Central nervous system

The central nervous system (CNS) is the part of the nervous system consisting of the brain and spinal cord.

Cytoplasm

In cell biology, the cytoplasm is the material within a living cell, excluding the cell nucleus.

Homeostasis

Homeostasis is the tendency of organisms to auto-regulate and maintain their internal environment in a stable state.

Microglia

Microglia are a type of neuroglia (glial cell) located throughout the brain and spinal cord.

Pathogen

In biology, a pathogen (πάθος pathos "suffering, passion" and -γενής -genēs "producer of") or a '''germ''' in the oldest and broadest sense is anything that can produce disease; the term came into use in the 1880s.

Phagocytosis

In cell biology, phagocytosis is the process by which a cell—often a phagocyte or a protist—engulfs a solid particle to form an internal compartment known as a phagosome.

Macrophage and Neuroglia Comparison

Macrophage has 159 relations, while Neuroglia has 89. As they have in common 8, the Jaccard index is 3.23% = 8 / (159 + 89).
