Anatomical Information

Bothremydidae is a successful lineage of pleurodiran turtles that lived from the Cretaceous to the Paleogene, and are found in most continents of both Laurasia and Gondwana. Despite numerous known cranial remains of this clade, no study on the complete neuroanatomical reconstruction of any of its representatives has been published so far. Tartaruscola teodorii is a French lower Eocene member of Foxemydina (Bothremydini), known by two skulls. It is one of the few bothremydids identified in the Cenozoic record of Europe. The present study includes the complete three-dimensional reconstruction of each of the cranial bones of both the holotype and the paratype of T. teodorii, increasing the anatomical information about this species. The virtual reconstruction of its neuroanatomical structures is presented here, including the cranial cavity, nerves, nasal cavity, inner ears, and carotid arteries. This analysis is the first detailed neuroanatomical study performed for a member of Bothremydidae. In addition, the virtual reconstruction of the neuroanatomical structures of some extant taxa belonging to several pleurodiran lineages (Chelidae, Pelomedusidae and Podocnemididae), are also carried out and analyzed, so that the comparative framework for Pleurodira is remarkably improved.

Remote User

We have developed a system for remote three-dimensional reconstruction, which facilitates telediagnosis. The telereconstruction system is based on a computerized tomography (CT) scanner, a workstation connected to the CT scanner, a PC, which can be geographically far away from the workstation, and a computer program that we have developed. The workstation allows CT images to be stored and image processing to be carried out. The PC permits the user to control the workstation in making a three-dimensional reconstruction and allows the remote user to see that reconstruction. From the PC various graphical operations can be performed on the three-dimensional model, such as rotations, translations and cuts through the model. The program therefore allows a remote user to have three-dimensional images and to study them by means of all the options the program provides.

In order to solve the problems of poor user experience and low human-computer interaction efficiency, this paper designs a 3D image virtual reconstruction system based on visual communication effects. First, the functional framework diagram and hardware structure diagram of the image 3D reconstruction system are given. Then, combined with the basic theory of visual communication design, the characteristics of different elements in the three-dimensional image system and reasonable visual communication forms are analyzed, and design principles are proposed to improve user experience and communication efficiency. After the input image is preprocessed by median filtering, a three-dimensional reconstruction algorithm based on the image sequence is used to perform a three-dimensional reconstruction of the preprocessed image. The performance of the designed system was tested in a comparison form. We optimize the original hardware structure, expand the clock module, and use the chip to improve the data processing efficiency; in the two-dimensional image; we read the main information, through data conversion, display it in three-dimensional form, select the feature area, extract the image feature, calculate the key physical coordinate points, complete the main code compilation, use visual communication technology to feed back the display visual elements to the 3D image, and complete the design of the 3D image virtual reconstruction system. The test results showed that the application of visual communication technology to the virtual reconstruction of 3D images can effectively remove noise and make the edge area of the image clear, which can meet the needs of users compared with the reconstruction results of the original system. Visual C++ and 3DMAX are used as the system design platform, and three-dimensional image visualization and roaming are realized through OpenGL. Experimental results show that the designed system has better reconstruction accuracy and user satisfaction.

Cellular Components

The tomographic reconstruction from multiple projections of cellular components, within a thick section, offers a way of visualizing and quantifying their three-dimensional (3D) structure. However, asymmetric objects require as many views from the widest tilt range as possible; otherwise the reconstruction may be uninterpretable. Even if not for geometric obstructions, the increasing pathway of electrons, as the tilt angle is increased, poses the ultimate upper limitation to the projection range. With the maximum tilt angle being fixed, the only way to improve the faithfulness of the reconstruction is by changing the mode of the tilting from single-axis to conical; a point within the object projected with a tilt angle of 60° and a full 360° azimuthal range is then reconstructed as a slightly elliptic (axis ratio 1.2 : 1) sphere.

Hemocyanin, the respiratory pigment of the scorpion Androctonus australis is composed of 24 kidney shaped subunits. A model of architecture supported by many indirect arguments has been deduced from electron microscopy (EM) and immuno-EM. To ascertain, the disposition of the subunits within the oligomer, the 24mer was submitted to three-dimensional reconstruction by the method of single-exposure random-conical tilt series.A sample of native hemocyanin, prepared with the double layer negative staining technique, was observed by transmisson electron microscopy under low-dose conditions. Six 3D-reconstructions were carried out indenpendently from top, side and 45°views. The results are composed of solid-body surface representations, and slices extracted from the reconstruction volume.The main two characters of the molecule previously reported by Van Heel and Frank, were constantly found in the solid-body surface representations. These features are the presence of two different faces called flip and flop and a rocking of the molecule around an axis passing through diagonnally opposed hexamers. Furthermore, in the solid-body surface of the top view reconstruction, the positions and orientations of the bridges connecting the half molecules were found in excellent agreement with those predicted by the model.

Chaperonins are a class of proteins characterized by their role as morphogenetic factors. They trantsiently interact with the structural components of certain biological aggregates (viruses, enzymes etc), promoting their correct folding, assembly and, eventually transport. The groEL factor from E. coli is a conspicuous member of the chaperonins, as it promotes the assembly and morphogenesis of bacterial oligomers and/viral structures.We have studied groEL-like factors from two different bacteria:E. coli and B.subtilis. These factors share common morphological features , showing two different views: one is 6-fold, while the other shows 7 morphological units. There is also a correlation between the presence of a dominant 6-fold view and the fact of both bacteria been grown at low temperature (32°C), while the 7-fold is the main view at higher temperatures (42°C). As the two-dimensional projections of groEL were difficult to interprete, we studied their three-dimensional reconstruction by the random conical tilt series method from negatively stained particles.
