[Synonym] 'satellite glial cell (SGCs); amphicyte' , to add as synonyms for CL:0000516 'perineuronal satellite cell' ? #1969

Hi CL Team,

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satellite_glial_cell

PMID: 36351367 https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36351367/

The adult dorsal root ganglion (DRG) harbors cell bodies of sensory neurons that discriminate a large number of sensory stimuli because of a high degree of morphological and functional diversity (Usoskin et al., 2015). Adult DRG neurons are metabolically and physically supported by two types of glia. First, satellite glial cells (SGCs) extend thin processes around each neuronal body to form an envelope and provide a unique environment of neuroglial communication that regulates neuronal activity (Hanani, 2005; Pannese, 1981). Second, the well-known myelinating and non-myelinating Schwann cells support axons along the peripheral nerve.

I guess, we can report 'satellite glial cells' by CL:0000516 'perineuronal satellite cell', given its definition: A non-neuronal cell that surrounds the neuronal cell bodies of the ganglia. [ MESH : D027161 GOC : tfm ]

Could be useful to add then 'satellite glial cell' and 'SGCs' and 'amphicyte' as synonyms, thought?

Thank you in advance

Anne
