Difference between Neuroglia and Tanycyte

Neuroglia vs. Tanycyte

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. Tanycytes are special ependymal cells found in the third ventricle of the brain, and on the floor of the fourth ventricle and have processes extending deep into the hypothalamus.

Similarities between Neuroglia and Tanycyte

Neuroglia and Tanycyte have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Brain, Central nervous system, Cerebrospinal fluid, Ependyma, Hypothalamus, Third ventricle.

Brain

The brain is an organ that serves as the center of the nervous system in all vertebrate and most invertebrate animals.

Central nervous system

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

Cerebrospinal fluid

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is a clear, colorless body fluid found in the brain and spinal cord.

Ependyma

Ependyma is the thin neuroepithelial lining of the ventricular system of the brain and the central canal of the spinal cord, made up of ependymal cells.

Hypothalamus

The hypothalamus(from Greek ὑπό, "under" and θάλαμος, thalamus) is a portion of the brain that contains a number of small nuclei with a variety of functions.

Neuroglia and Tanycyte Comparison

Neuroglia has 89 relations, while Tanycyte has 9. As they have in common 6, the Jaccard index is 6.12% = 6 / (89 + 9).
