  Macrophages exist in almost all animals. In some invertebrates, mesenchymal cells, endothelial cells or fibroblast-like cells can transform into macrophages.
  In vertebrates, primitive macrophages first develop in yolk sac hematopoiesis and (...)

  In addition to being essential supporters of neuronal function, astrocytes are active elements in the brain.
  Astrocytes sense and integrate synaptic activity and, depending on intracellular Ca(2+) levels, release gliotransmitters (e.g. glutamate, d-serine and ATP) that have feedback actions on neurons.

• spermatid
  22 April 2011

  Definition: The spermatid is the haploid male gametid that results from division of secondary spermatocytes. As a result of meiosis, each spermatid contains only half of the genetic material present in the original primary spermatocyte.
  Spermatids are connected together by cytoplasmic material and have superfluous cytoplasmic material around their nuclei.
  When formed, early round spermatids must undergo further maturational events in order to develop into spermatozoa, a process termed (...)
