Key result
Extended allostasis concept frames biological adaptation as mutual regulation across cognitive, somatic, and autonomic systems.
Why the study?
The concept of allostasis has continued to develop with advances in neuroscience, warranting an extended concept incorporating mutual regulation among cognitive, somatic, and autonomic systems.
This review provides a conceptual update on allostasis, framing it as a dynamic mutual regulation between cognitive, somatic, and autonomic systems.
Allostasis is a physiological principle based on a dynamic regulatory system, contrary to homeostasis, in which the goal is to reach a steady state and recover from deviation from a set point in the internal environment. The concept of allostasis has continued to develop with advances in the field of neuroscience. In this short review, the author presents several new findings in neuroscience and extend the concept of allostasis as mutual regulation between cognitive, somatic, and autonomic systems. In this manner, biological systems adapt to external and internal environments by changing themselves.

Hajime Mushiake (2022) conducted a review in Allostasis and Homeostasis. The concept of allostasis is extended as mutual regulation between cognitive, somatic, and autonomic systems, allowing biological systems to adapt to external and internal environments.
