Glia cells, traditionally known as support cells for neurons, actively measure the amount of epinephrine and norepinephrine in circuits that affect physical exertion perception.
2:14:35 - 2:17:14 (02:38)
Summary
Glia cells, traditionally known as support cells for neurons, actively measure the amount of epinephrine and norepinephrine in circuits that affect physical exertion perception. This means that our perception of progress during exercise may be affected by the measurement of these chemicals by glia cells.
