Neuroglia is not a part of the neuron.

These are non-neuronal cells present in both the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system.

Neuroglia or glial cells in the CNS include astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, ependymal cells, and microglia.

Glial cells in the PNS include Schwann cells and satellite cells.

axon, dendrite, and neurosoma (cell body) are parts of a neuron.
