Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Myelin is produced by a type of glial cell called oligodendrocytes in the central nervous system (CNS) and by Schwann cells in the peripheral nervous system (PNS). Microglia are involved in immune response and neural tissue maintenance, astrocytes provide structural and metabolic support to neurons, and ependymal cells line the ventricles of the brain and spinal cord and help to produce cerebrospinal fluid.
