Correctly identifying responses is critical for understanding homeostatic and allostatic regulation
Homeostasis stabilizes critical biological variables within appropriate limits via corrective regulatory effector responses that adequately counter disturbing effects. Identifying individual effects and responses, and distinguishing their individual influences on a regulated state, is challenging. Studying effector responses can reveal regulatory phenomena that depart from homeostasis into the ...
متن کاملSnapin is critical for presynaptic homeostatic plasticity.
The molecular mechanisms underlying the homeostatic modulation of presynaptic neurotransmitter release are largely unknown. We have previously used an electrophysiology-based forward genetic screen to assess the function of >400 neuronally expressed genes for a role in the homeostatic control of synaptic transmission at the neuromuscular junction of Drosophila melanogaster. This screen identifi...
متن کاملTime-of-day modulation of homeostatic and allostatic sleep responses to chronic sleep restriction in rats.
To study sleep responses to chronic sleep restriction (CSR) and time-of-day influences on these responses, we developed a rat model of CSR that takes into account the polyphasic sleep patterns in rats. Adult male rats underwent cycles of 3 h of sleep deprivation (SD) and 1 h of sleep opportunity (SO) continuously for 4 days, beginning at the onset of the 12-h light phase ("3/1" protocol). Elect...
متن کاملRepeated sleep restriction in rats leads to homeostatic and allostatic responses during recovery sleep.
Recent studies indicate that chronic sleep restriction can have negative consequences for brain function and peripheral physiology and can contribute to the allostatic load throughout the body. Interestingly, few studies have examined how the sleep-wake system itself responds to repeated sleep restriction. In this study, rats were subjected to a sleep-restriction protocol consisting of 20 h of ...
متن کاملUnderstanding is identifying a structure
Understanding means identifying and using a structure. The core of understanding consists in identifying relevant relations between objects, between parts and their relation to the whole that is to be understood. Identifying relations contributes to enhanced understanding since finding more relations makes it possible to understand from different points of view. Understanding is thus closely re...
