Synthesis of a new heterobifunctional reagent, N-(3-triethoxysilylpropyl)-6-(N-maleimido)-hexanamide (TPMH), for the preparation of oligonucleotide microarrays is described. Its triethoxysilyl function is specific toward virgin glass surface and maleimide function undergoes conjugate addition to 3'- or 5'-thiol-modified oligonucleotides. The construction of microarrays

In this study, NOH (NOH = N-octadecyl-4-[(D-galactopyranosyl)oxy]-2,3,5,6-tetrahydroxy hexanamide) was enzymatically synthesized as a targeting molecule and incorporated into liposomes to prepare a liposome surface modified with galactose. Glycyrrhetinic-acid-loaded liposome (GA-LP) and glycyrrhetinic-acid-loaded liposome surface modified with galactose (NOH-GA-LP) were prepared by the
