Homeostatic Loops

Feedback mechanisms at cellular and tissue levels driving error correction toward target states.

Neighborhood — ranked by edge-count

concept

Stress Sharing
associated_with
Core concept: the hypothesis that cells can leak or export stress signals to neighbors, enabling collective coordination toward morphogenetic goals without explicit altruism.
Set point
associated_with
A preferred state that a system seeks to maintain.

cosine ≥ 0.65 · no typed edge

Entities in the same semantic neighborhood but without a typed relation to this one — candidates for new edges or unrecognized duplicates.
