Oligodendrocyte

An oligodendrocyte, labelled with a green fluorescent stain. Note the numerous processes arising from the center of the cell. Oligodendrocytes wrap their processes around the axons of different neurons, providing myelin for those axons. One oligodendrocyte may provide myelin for many different neurons.
