ABSTRACT
Collagen and its hydrolysates are the main functional substances derived from jellyfish, with superior characteristics including the convenient extraction, non-toxicity, high biodegradability and good biocompatibility. As a result, jellyfish collagen and its hydrolysates have become an important material in the field of biomedical research and showed a good application prospect in tissue engineering, biomaterial development and drug delivery. This review focuses on the application of jellyfish collagen and its hydrolysates in the biomedical researches, such as collagen scaffolds for cartilage tissue engineering, vascular grafts, aptamer sensors, hemostatic materials, anti-arthritis, anti-hypertension, so as to provide a reference for further studies on the application of the jellyfish collagen and its hydrolysates.
