Astrocytes, a type of glial cell, help regulate the plasticity of the synapses between these cells.
In adults, these cells are created in the subventricular zone, which is bounded by the ependyma. When Substance P is released by these cells in response to nociceptive stimuli, inflammation occurs. Schwann cells coat parts of these cells in an insulating sheath, the loss of which can lead to multiple sclerosis. They form a primitive "net" in cnidarians, but form a more complex system that includes somatic and autonomic branches in chordates.
