The invasive cactus Opuntia stricta creates fertility islands in African savannas and benefits from those created by native trees

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
The patchy distribution of trees typical of savannas often results in a discontinuous distribution of water, nutrient resources, and microbial communities in soil, commonly referred to as “islands of fertility”. We assessed how this phenomenon may affect

Protein dynamics at invadopodia control invasion–migration transitions in melanoma cells

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2023
Cell invasion is a highly complex process that requires the coordination of cell migration and degradation of the extracellular matrix. In melanoma cells, as in many highly invasive cancer cell types these processes are driven by the regulated formation ...

Disentangling invasiveness and invasibility during invasion in synthesized grassland communities [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2003
•   An experiment with synthesized grassland communities was performed to identify plant traits that contribute to invasiveness and community traits that promote invasibility, and to study the relationship between, and the relative importance of, invasiveness and invasibility.

Invasive and non-invasive mechanical ventilation [PDF]

open access: yesMedicine, 2012
Early recognition of patients who might potentially require ventilatory support is a key goal of critical care outreach programs and an important skill for all hospital medical staff. Decisions about the initiation and timing of invasive ventilation can be difficult and early discussion with critical care colleagues is essential.

Invasive and Non-invasive Neurostimulation for OCD

open access: yes, 2021
It becomes increasingly clear that (non-)invasive neurostimulation is an effective treatment for obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). In this chapter we review the available evidence on techniques and targets, clinical results including a meta-analysis, mechanisms of action, and animal research.

Simplified minimally invasive invasive parathyroidectomy [PDF]

open access: yesThe Annals of The Royal College of Surgeons of England, 2011
We agree with Wong et al that minimally invasive parathyroidectomy (MIP) is a safe and effective option in selected patients (approximately 50% of those with primary hyperparathyroidism) but would like to comment on some aspects of methodology and conclusions as reported in their case series. The authors quote a reference from 20031 to support their

Plasmodium falciparum:Rosettes do not protect merozoites from invasion-inhibitory antibodies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Rosetting is a parasite adhesion phenotype associated with severe malaria in African children. Why parasites form rosettes is unknown, although enhanced invasion or immune evasion have been suggested as possible functions.

To South Africa and beyond: Local distribution and global invasion potential of the alien anemone Cereus pedunculatus [PDF]

open access: yesAquatic Invasions
Effective management of invasive alien species relies on spatial and temporal data. Yet, such information is scarce in the marine realm due to challenges associated with monitoring in highly connected environments that can be difficult to observe.

Invasion/Invasive [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironmental Humanities, 2017
My garden is being invaded by Japanese knotweed, as are those of my neighbors and those of many people who live in other places far from its native East Asia. I keep it more or less under control by eliminating individual extrusions, but I know that I am engaged in an open-ended struggle rather than a campaign leading to possible victory.

Invasion pathways and malaria severity in Kenyan Plasmodium falciparum clinical isolates. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The invasion of erythrocytes by Plasmodium falciparum occurs through multiple pathways that can be studied in vitro by examining the invasion of erythrocytes treated with enzymes such as neuraminidase, trypsin, and chymotrypsin.
