Design for the cover of the July 2023 issue of Nature Cardiovascular Research, “BAG3 variant and cardioprotection.”
The horizontal dashed lines in the background represent the heart cell’s myofibrils, which is where the BAG molecules (blue blobs) reside. The dots at the bottom represent a “Manhattan plot,” commonly used to spot significant variants in genetic population analyses.
