Methods: There were six groups of rats: the control, metformin (100 mg/kg body weight, .), VO (12.
Background: B-cell receptor (BCR) signaling is a central driver in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), along with the activation of pro-survival pathways (e.g., NF-κB) and aberrant anti-apoptotic mechanisms (e.
