Bouasker S, Nodland S, Millette M
Microorganisms . 2024 Jun; 12(6). PMID: 38930418
was recently shown to be a powerful model for studying and identifying probiotics with specific functions. CL1285, LBC80R, and CLR2, which are three bacteria that were marketed by Bio-K+, were...

Bouasker S, Patel N, Greenlees R, Wellesley D, Fares Taie L, Almontashiri N, et al.
J Med Genet . 2022 Jul; 60(3):294-300. PMID: 35790350
Background: Pulmonary hypoplasia, Diaphragmatic anomalies, Anophthalmia/microphthalmia and Cardiac defects delineate the PDAC syndrome. We aim to identify the cause of PDAC syndrome in patients who do not carry pathogenic variants...

Frappier M, Auclair J, Bouasker S, Gunaratnam S, Diarra C, Millette M
Probiotics Antimicrob Proteins . 2022 Jun; 14(5):873-883. PMID: 35704269
Dyslipidemia, specifically abnormal levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), is an important risk factor of cardiovascular disease. Evidence showing the promising abilities of probiotics to lower total cholesterol or LDL-C...

Zinovyeva A, Bouasker S, Simard M, Hammell C, Ambros V
PLoS Genet . 2014 Apr; 10(4):e1004286. PMID: 24763381
microRNAs function in diverse developmental and physiological processes by regulating target gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. ALG-1 is one of two Caenorhabditis elegans Argonautes (ALG-1 and ALG-2) that together...

Lemay P, Knowler S, Bouasker S, Nedelec Y, Platt S, Freeman C, et al.
PLoS One . 2014 Apr; 9(4):e89816. PMID: 24740420
Chiari-like malformation (CM) is a developmental abnormality of the craniocervical junction that is common in the Griffon Bruxellois (GB) breed with an estimated prevalence of 65%. This disease is characterized...

Bouasker S, Simard M
Nucleic Acids Res . 2012 Aug; 40(20):10452-62. PMID: 22904066
Among the set of Argonautes proteins encoded by metazoan genomes, some have conserved amino acids important for catalytic or slicing activity. The functional significance of these residues in microRNA (miRNA)-specific...

Bagijn M, Goldstein L, Sapetschnig A, Weick E, Bouasker S, Lehrbach N, et al.
Science . 2012 Jun; 337(6094):574-578. PMID: 22700655
Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are small RNAs required to maintain germline integrity and fertility, but their mechanism of action is poorly understood. Here we demonstrate that Caenorhabditis elegans piRNAs silence transcripts...

Jannot G, Bajan S, Giguere N, Bouasker S, Banville I, Piquet S, et al.
EMBO Rep . 2011 Apr; 12(6):581-6. PMID: 21525958
Despite the importance of microRNAs (miRNAs) in gene regulation, it is unclear how the miRNA-Argonaute complex--or miRNA-induced silencing complex (miRISC)--can regulate the translation of their targets in such diverse ways....
