An obvious example of an allogenic engineer is the beaver and its impact on riparian systems through the construction of dams.
-
According to proponents of the ecosystem engineer story, the example should be retold: otters change the effect of an allogenic engineer – urchins – upon an autogenic engineer – kelp beds; the change in kelp bed structure causes the rest of the cascade of effects.

The HLA-G molecule due to its many unique features and its immuno-modulatory abilities is now well recognized to play a central role in mediating tolerance to the semi-allogenic fetus by the maternal immune system.

Over the course of the last four years, approximately 30,000 patients have been treated with allogenic stem cell products in the U.S.; 2,000 - 3,000 with autologous stem cell products; and more than 1,000 with cultured stem cell Stem cells as commercial products have demonstrable therapeutic value in 15 medical markets, according to Young's analysis, such as heart muscle repair, nerve regeneration and diabetes treatment.

The laboratory has processed close to 5000 units of cord blood and hundreds of units of PBSC (peripheral blood stem cells) for both autologous and allogenic transplantation purposes.
