•A homogenous polysaccharide (JSP-11) was isolated from jellyfish.•The structural features of JSP-11 were characterized.•The activation of macrophages by JSP-11 and the related mechanism were studied. A new polysaccharide (JSP-11) with a molecular weight of 1.25×106Da was extracted and purified from...
