aivokudosten
Aivokudosten, or brain tissue, refers to the soft, gelatinous tissue that constitutes the brain. It consists of neurons, glial cells, blood vessels, and extracellular matrix, organized into regions and networks that support signaling, metabolism, and cognitive function. The tissue is broadly divided into gray matter, which contains most neuron cell bodies and synapses, and white matter, which primarily consists of myelinated axons that connect different brain regions.
Neurons relay information via electrical impulses and chemical synapses. Glial cells, including astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, and microglia,
Functionally, brain tissue supports perception, movement, memory, language, emotion, and executive processes. Its organization into cortical
Pathology in brain tissue is linked to stroke, trauma, infections, and neurodegenerative diseases, often involving cell
