Glioblast

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A glioblast is a type of cell derived from neuroectoderm and with the ability to differentiate into several different types of neuroglia.

It comes from a precursor (spongioblast). However, the latter may also differentiate in ependymoblast.

The glioblast will differentiate in astrocyte and oligodendrocyte.
