The brain has its own equivalents of gardeners called microglia.

大脑的园丁叫作”小”。

So last Thursday, I was convinced I had a glioma.

上个星期四 我十自己得了瘤。

This myelin is produced by Schwann cells which are a group of cells that support neurons.

髓鞘是施万细胞产生的；施万细胞是支持的细胞。

Your brain is 10% neurons, and 90% glial cells.

大脑由 10% 的元和 90% 的细胞构成。

And this tissue also is made up of two different cell types — neurons and glial cells.

这种组织也由两种不同的细胞类型组成：元和细胞。

There is also a category of cells called neuroglial cells that help support brain homeostasis, and neuronal functions.

大脑中还有一类细胞被称为细胞，帮助维持大脑的自稳态以及功能。

They arise from supportive glial cells as well as neurons.

其源于细胞或元。

A team of UK medical research council scientists found the microglia was too keen in schizophrenia.

英国医学研究委员会的科学家发现，小对精裂症的反应尤为灵敏。

In these studies, scientists transformed glia cells into neurons that had all the typical features you'd expect.

在这些研究中，科学家将细胞转化为具有你所期望的所有典型特征的元。

These include astrocytes which have cellular processes coming off their cell body, giving them a star-shaped appearance.

细胞包括星形细胞，它们的胞体发出许多长而支的突起，使其呈现星形外观。

To name just one example, patterns of activity between neurons are likely influenced by a type of cell called glia.

仅举一个例子，元之间的活动模式很可能受到一种称为细胞的影响。

In fact, there are probably almost as many glia in your brain and nervous system as there are neurons!

事实上，你的大脑和系统中的细胞可能几乎和元一样多！

Glia surround neurons and, according to some scientists, may even outnumber them by as many as ten to one.

细胞围绕元，据一些科学家称，其数量比可能是十多个细胞对一个元。

But more than that the supportive cells called glial cells are now cleaning up the toxins that the neurons produce.

但是除此之外，叫作细胞的支持细胞，会在你睡觉时清除元产生的毒素。

In the brain, the most common growths are glioneural hamartomas, also known as a cortical tubers.

在脑部，最常见的是错构瘤，也被称为皮层结节。

A small glioma could hide from contrast.

小的瘤可能无法显示。

The theory is that if you really tax your brain, the neurofibers will become thicker and the glial cells more lustrous.

理论上来说如果你真的充利用了大脑那你的纤维会更加粗壮细胞会更有光泽。

A glioma not presenting on a contrast M.R.I.

如果一个瘤在核磁共振上都无法显示。

An organ that has evolved over millions of years to have around 86 billion neurons and even Glial cells to support it.

一个进化了数百万年的器官，有 860 亿的元甚至细胞来支持它运作。

Fischman: So those supporting cells are called glial cells.

Fischman：所以这些支持细胞被称为细胞。
