Biological Activity: N-(2-Aminoethyl)maleimide (2-Maleimidoethylamine) hydrochloride is a selective covalent binding agent for thiol groups (RSGs), covalently binding to thiols via an irreversible thioether bond to prepare MMP-2-sensitive nanosystems. Under near-neutral conditions, the maleimide group in N-(2-Aminoethyl)maleimide hydrochloride binds to thiol groups via a nucleophilic addition reaction, and can be used to modify polymers or biological interfaces, enhancing mucosal adhesion and regulating the surface charge of biological interfaces. N-(2-Aminoethyl)maleimide hydrochloride can optimize the adhesion performance of drug delivery carriers and cell interactions with biological interfaces, and is applied in transmucosal drug delivery systems (such as drug carriers for oral and bladder sites) and biomaterial surface engineering research, providing support for tissue implantation, regeneration, and related drug delivery^[1][2].
