How can you use “homeostatic” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

Recent observations, including the current report, suggest a complex interrelationship between homeostatic and circadian influences on sleep at the molecular level.
Sleep is regulated by both circadian and homeostatic mechanisms.
Together, these unexpected results are compatible with a role for cryptochromes in the homeostatic regulation of sleep in addition to their role in generating circadian rhythms.
To determine whether transcriptional regulation by CRY1,2 influences the homeostatic regulation of sleep, we studied sleep in cry1,2 -/-mice under baseline conditions, under conditions of constant darkness, and after sleep deprivation (SD).
Thus, in both nocturnal and diurnal species, per expression in the cortex is maximal in conjunction with the major waking episode [ 37 49 50 ] . Under conditions where the phase (methamphetamine administration, restricted feeding) or distribution (circadian splitting) of locomotor activity is altered, per expression in the cortex parallels the overt rhythm of wakefulness, whereas the circadian oscillation of per gene expression in the SCN remains unaffected [ 49 51 52 ] . Thus, in contrast to its role in the SCN, PER protein in the cortex is not a component of a self-sustaining circadian oscillator [ 53 ] . Instead, per expression in the cortex seems to the follow sleep-wake history, consistent with the hypothesis that it is related to homeostatic regulation of sleep.
