It is that really soft gelatinous texture that you get from boiling it.

煮熟后会有非常柔软的胶质感。

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

Did you know that almost 90% of your brain is made up of glue cells?

你是否知道，你的大脑几乎有90%是由胶质构成的？

And in between those crystalline nanowires, Joester and his colleagues discovered a sort of amorphous glue.

而在这些晶状纳米线中，乔斯特尔和同事们发现了一种非固定形状的胶质。

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

髓鞘由支持神经元的少突胶质形成。

The brain has immune cells known as microglia that are supposed to maintain health by removing waste.

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

神经胶质包括星形胶质，它们的体发出许多长而分支的突起，使其呈现星形外观。

But another reason, they say, is the iron-enriched glue in beaver enamel—which was even more acid-resistant than fluoride-treated enamel.

但他们称另一个原因则是海狸牙釉质中富含铁的胶质—相比氟这种牙釉质在耐酸性上更胜一筹。

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

事实上，你的大脑和神经系统中的神经胶质可能几乎和神经元一样多！

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，叫作神经胶质的支持，会在你睡觉时清除神经元产生的毒素。

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，神经元之间的活动模式很可能受到一种称为神经胶质的影响。

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

髓鞘质是施万产生的；施万是支持神经的神经胶质。

But luckily, new glia are reliably produced throughout adulthood, so swapping a few of them shouldn't pose a long-term problem.

但幸运的是，新的胶质在整个成期都能可靠地产生，因此更换其中的一些不应构成长期问题。

They are typically named by the cell type involved, so for example an astrocytoma is a tumor formed by mutated astrocytes.

脑肿通常以变异的类型命名，比如，星形是由变异的星形胶质形成。

In experiments on mice, they took a type of cell called a glia cell, and they transformed it into a neuron.

在对老鼠的实验中，他们采用了一种称为神经胶质的，并将其转化为神经元。

Our microglia janitor cells become hyper-activated, releasing chemicals that cause inflammation and cellular damage.
