Ependymal Layer

> Ependymal tissue (in English: ependyma) is the lining of the lateral ventricles of the brain and spinal cord, which includes the substance of the ependyma, which is the so-called main layer of nervous tissue, which has much in common with the neural tissue of the brain and dorsal cerebellum.

Purpose of the article:

The purpose of this article is to study the medical term *"ependymal" layer*, as well as to study its origin and role in the body.

Definition: The *ependymal* layer is a thin layer of fibrous cells lining the walls of the neural tubes in mammals. These cells have the ability to produce cerebrospinal fluid (CSF).

Origin The ependymal layer is formed from spindle-shaped cells that are located on either side of the CNS (central nervous system). These cells give rise to the general ependyma. The neurogenic embryonic source is the neural plates, they give rise to ependymoblasts located deep in the developing neural plate (neuro) of the dorsal medullary vesicle
