Ependymal cells

The ependyma consists of a low columnar, frequently ciliated, epithelium lining the ventricles and central canal of the CNS.  The cilia facilitate the movement of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) which occupies the spaces lined by the ependymal cells.  In some regions the ependyma is modified to form the choroid plexus which is highly folded and extends into the ventricle and produces the CSF.  The cells have a prominent brush border of microvilli.  1000x
