  2. Satellite glial cells are a type of glia found in the peripheral nervous system, specifically in sensory, sympathetic, and parasympathetic ganglia. They compose the thin cellular sheaths that surround the individual neurons in these ganglia.

  3. Jul 22, 2020 · Satellite glial cells (SGCs) closely envelop cell bodies of neurons in sensory, sympathetic and parasympathetic ganglia. This unique organization is not found elsewhere in the nervous system....

  4. Oct 19, 2022 · Satellite cells are small, flattened cells found in the ganglia of the peripheral nervous system (ganglion = collection of cell bodies). Researchers have yet to determine the specific functions of satellite cells, but it is generally assumed that they help regulate and stabilize the environment around ganglion cell bodies.

  5. Feb 14, 2024 · Satellite cells can either refer to a population of stem cells found in skeletal muscle that are essential for its regeneration, or a type of glial cell which form a thin sheath around neuronal cell bodies in ganglia of the peripheral nervous system.

  7. Sep 29, 2020 · Unlike neurons in the central nervous system (CNS), peripheral sensory neurons with cell soma in dorsal root ganglia (DRG) switch to a regenerative state after nerve injury to enable axon...

  8. Oct 15, 2022 · Satellite glial cells (SGCs) that surround sensory neurons in the peripheral nervous system ganglia originate from neural crest cells. Although several studies have focused on SGCs, the origin and characteristics of SGCs are unknown, and their lineage remains unidentified.
