Abstract
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths in France, with about 30,000 deaths per year. The overwhelming majority (90 %) are tobacco-related. The prognosis is dark but great therapeutic advances have been made with the development of targeted therapies first and then immunotherapy afterwards. These medications are conditioned to the expression of biomarkers that require specific tools in routine to measure them. We will detail in this chapter several techniques of anatomopathology, cytogenetics and molecular biology necessary for the detection of biomarkers in lung cancers, and their applications in thoracic oncology in 2018.

Abstract
Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) airway infection and bronchial blood vessel proliferation are features of bronchiectasis. Because vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-A regulates angiogenesis, we hypothesised that PA infection induces VEGF synthesis in epithelium and peribronchial angiogenesis. Because epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) activation regulates VEGF synthesis in cancer, we also evaluated the roles of EGFR. Airway epithelial cells were incubated for 24 h with PA supernatants and VEGF concentrations were measured in culture medium by ELISA. C57BL/6N mice were instilled intratracheally with sterile agarose beads or with agarose beads coated with the PA strain PAO1 (mean ± sem 6 × 10(5) ± 3 × 10(5) cfu · animal(-1)), with or without the EGFR inhibitor AG1478 (12.5 mg · kg(-1) · day(-1) intraperitoneally). Epithelial immunostaining for VEGF and phosphorylated EGFR, and peribronchial vascularity, were quantified using morphometric analysis. VEGF expression was further assessed by western blot in mouse lung homogenates. PA supernatants induced dose-dependent VEGF synthesis in cultured airway epithelial cells, effects which were prevented by EGFR antagonists. In mice, persistent PAO1 infection increased immunostaining for VEGF and phosphorylated EGFR in airway epithelium, and resulted in increased peribronchial vascularity within 7 days. These effects were reduced by EGFR inhibition. Persistent PA infection induced VEGF synthesis in airway epithelium and peribronchial angiogenesis, at least in part via EGFR-dependent mechanisms.

Abstract
Different aspects of spinal locomotor organization have been studied in the mouse during embryonic and neonatal development using in vitro preparations of isolated lumbosacral cords. The first consideration was the embryonic development of an alternating bilateral pattern. From embryonic day (E) 12, perfusion of serotonin could induce relatively synchronous lumbar bursts across the cord. Bilateral activity became progressively alternate at E15 due to the appearance of glycinergic inhibitory interactions (revealed by strychnine application). Strictly alternating patterns were expressed at E18 and were maintained after birth. In a second step, we investigated cellular properties involved in lumbar rhythmogenesis in postnatal day 0-2 preparations which displayed spontaneous locomotor-like activity. Perfusion of receptor antagonists showed the co-operative involvement of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)- and non-NMDA-receptors for excitatory amino acids-mediated operation of locomotor networks. In a final step we investigated the localization of locomotor networks within the lumbar cord. Data obtained from preparations exhibiting spontaneous or Mg2+-free induced bursts revealed that the networks are present throughout the lumbar cord and that rhythmogenesis is distributed throughout all segmental levels.

Abstract
Synapses obtained in vitro in a system of co-culture of muscle cells and neurons are of embryonic type. We prepared a monoclonal antibody (6.17) which recognizes a molecule synthesized by Schwann cells and used it to show that the main characteristics of maturity (decrease in number of synapses, appearance of junctional folds, and suppression of butyrylcholinesterase expression) are under the control of Schwann cells. In addition, Schwann cells have the capacity to aggregate the acetylcholine receptors in myotube cultures.

Abstract
To study a step of the very complex processes of the formation of the neuromuscular junction (NMJ), we have analysed the clustering of acetylcholine receptors (AChR) and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in myotubes cultured in various conditions. On the surface of rat myotubes cultured in the presence of spinal cord cells from embryonic rat, numerous AChE clusters appeared. Such clusters are always co-localized with AChR clusters, but the reverse is not true: the number of AChR clusters largely exceeds that of AChE clusters. Very few AChE clusters formed when such co-cultures were treated with monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against the main immunogenic region (MIR) of the AChR, which provoke internalization and degradation of the AChRs of the muscular membrane. The total levels of AChE and proportions of molecular forms were unaffected. We also used non-innervated myotubes in which addition of agrin, a protein normally synthesized by motoneurons, transported to nerve terminals and inserted into the synaptic basal lamina, induces the formation of small clusters of AChE. When added to rat myotubes devoid of membrane AChR, agrin-induced AChE clusters did not form. Finally, we analysed the capacity of the variant of the C2 mouse muscle cell line deficient in AChR (1R-) to form clusters of AChE in co-cultures with spinal cord cells from rat: no formation of AChE clusters could be observed. In all these different systems of cultures, the conditions which prevented clustering of AChR (anti-AChR antibodies, deficiency of the variant C2 cell line) also suppressed AChE clustering. We concluded that clustering of AChR is a prerequisite for clustering of AChE, so that NMJ formation implies the sequential accumulation of these two components.

Abstract
Using a monoclonal antibody (6.17) directed against a Schwann antigen, we have shown that Schwann cells synthesize a molecule implicated in a change of expression of synaptic cholinesterases, AChE and BChE, during muscle differentiation. In vitro, during synaptogenesis, the two enzymes are first present at developing synapses, and addition of Schwann cells to muscle-neuron co-cultures induces a disappearance of BChE, leaving only AChE activity as in the adult neuromuscular junction. This effect is inhibited by the 6.17 antibody. Thus, a molecule produced by Schwann cells is involved in the maturation of the neuromuscular synapse, in addition to the neuronal factors (CGRP, ARIA/heregulin, agrin), which are known to control the synthesis, maturation and accumulation of acetylcholine receptors and other synaptic components. In addition, in vivo, in the newborn rat, butyrylcholinesterase and acetylcholinesterase activities are initially present in equal amounts in the neural zone, but butyrylcholinesterase levels diminish sharply between 7 and 15 days after birth, the stage at which the synaptic Schwann cell membrane becomes juxtaposed with the muscle membrane.

Abstract
A specific monoclonal antiserum (Mab 6.17) inducing a strong immunostaining of the neuromuscular junction has been used to detect the possible occurrence of the corresponding antigen throughout the intact or lesioned central nervous system of adult rats. In intact animals, 6.17-immunolabeling was essentially detected in astrocyte-like structures located in white matter fasciculi of the brain, such as the optic tract, corpus callosum, fornix, and in the white matter of the spinal cord. The astroglial nature of such 6.17-immunolabeled profiles was verified by performing double or triple immunofluorescent labeling with Mab 6.17 and with specific antisera against astrocytic markers, such as S100 protein, glial fibrillary acidic protein and vimentin. In the white matter, all the structures reactive to Mab 6.17 were also reactive to antibodies against S100 protein, glial fibrillary acidic protein and vimentin. On the other hand, astrocytes of the grey matter that were immunoreactive to S100 and glial fibrillary acidic protein but negative to vimentin, were devoid of 6.17-immunoreactivity. After lesions including stab wound through the diencephalon or transection of the spinal cord, a marked increase of 6.17-immunostaining was noted in the regions surrounding the lesions. In these regions, 6.17-immunolabeling was associated with S100-, GFAP- and vimentin-positive astrocytes constituting the glial scar. The ultrastructural localization of 6.17-immunoreactivity indicated that, similar to glial fibrillary acidic protein and vimentin, the recognized antigen was mainly associated with gliofilaments. These observations indicate that, in the central nervous system of adult rats, Mab 6.17 recognizes a molecule associated with gliofilaments, which is essentially associated to reactive astrocytes expressing high levels of vimentin.

Abstract
This work compares the efficacy of varying the concentrations of cryoprotectants when freezing samples of rat muscles for later use in tissue culture. The best yields were obtained with DMSO associated with glycerol and sucrose; before plating, the best results indicated 45% of cells with respect to controls, and delayed (24-36 h) myotube maturation. Maturation was studied by analysing the molecular forms of acetylcholinesterase and the ability of myotubes to form synapses in the presence of neurons, in fresh and frozen muscle.

Abstract
Myasthenia gravis (MG) is mediated by circulating antibodies directed against acetylcholine receptor (AChR) but the antibody titre is poorly correlated with the clinical severity of the disease. We analysed acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity, molecular forms and distribution during in vitro synaptogenesis, in the presence of sera from MG patient. We observed that the formation of AChE patches is inhibited in proportion to the anti-AChR antibody titre, whatever the clinical severity of the disease. The total activity and the proportion of the different molecular forms were unchanged suggesting that AChE level and distribution are controlled by independent mechanisms. To clarify the relationship between the mechanisms of AChE concentration during synaptogenesis and AChR concentration, we compared the effect of MG sera (receptors are internalised and degraded) and of the acetylcholine antagonist alpha-bungarotoxin (non-functional receptors are still present in the muscular membrane). In the presence of alpha-bungarotoxin, the number of AChR clusters, and AChE activity and concentration were equivalent to control values. The comparison of the results obtained with antibodies and alpha-bungarotoxin suggests that the presence and/or concentration of AChR is a necessary condition for normal concentration of AChE during synaptogenesis.

Abstract
Rat myotubes have a resting [Ca2+]i of about 82 nM. Myotubes 3-5 days old (quiescent myotubes) display electrically induced and spontaneous transients in the intracellular concentration of free Ca2+ ions ([Ca2+]i) uncoupled to any detectable contraction. By contrast, 1- to 2-day-old myotubes are insensitive to electrical stimuli and, after 6 days in culture, stimulated myotubes always show [Ca2+]i transients and twitch contractions. The spatial distribution of [Ca2+]i variations in quiescent myotubes is heterogeneous, local increases in [Ca2+]i being mainly observed near the periphery of the cell. The small effect of different external Ca2+ concentrations and of Cd2+ on the amplitude of the [Ca2+]i oscillation indicates that the main source of Ca2+ may be the sarcoplasmic reticulum. This conclusion is supported by the close similarity between electrically induced and caffeine-induced [Ca2+]i maps. These findings suggest that, at an early stage of myotube ontogenesis, a part of the excitation/contraction coupling, as membrane ionic channels, voltage sensors and Ca2+ release and reuptake mechanisms, is functional but, apparently, still uncoupled to the contractile machinery.

Abstract
Cultures of spinal cord neurons and cocultures of rat embryo neurons and muscle cells have been studied in the presence of tetanus toxin (TT) at a concentration of 40 micrograms/ml of medium. TT strongly stimulated neurite outgrowth, notably branching from the cell bodies. In addition it induced a marked, overall increase in acetylcholine receptor (AChR), but inhibited focalisation of AChR and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) at the synaptic sites. TT seems to act on neurite emergence, on the neuronal factor(s) controlling AChE and AChR concentrations, and on the factor(s) modulating degradation and/or synthesis of AChR.

Abstract
Cocultures of spinal cord neurons and muscle cells taken from rat embryos were used for in vitro reproduction of embryonic synapses. This system did not display the synaptic maturation characteristics of postnatal development: decreased multiple innervation and the presence of a developed subneural apparatus. Studies on cultures consisting of 3 cell types (muscle cells, nerve cells, Schwann cells), or on co-cultures (muscle cells, nerve cells), in the presence or absence of a monoclonal antibody directed against an antigen from Schwann cells, have shown that Schwann cells participate in synaptic maturation and in the elimination of superfluous synapses. The synapses were visualised for optical microscopy by co-localisation of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) spots and acetylcholine receptor (AChR) clusters.

Abstract
The monoclonal antibody 6.17 binds to a molecule concentrated at the neuromuscular synapse. We tested it in various experimental conditions and all along the normal muscle development. It seems that the 6.17 corresponding antigen, suspected of Schwann cell origin, would be later localised in the synaptic space, but not in the basal lamina. Thus, the Schwann cell might participate to the synthesis of some synaptic molecules.

Abstract
Our triple labelling method allows the AChE and AChR distributions and the nerve endings to be stained in the same preparation. This method which provides a detailed visualization of the synaptic contacts and is capable of revealing a weak AChE activity is particularly valuable in studies of synaptogenesis.
