The invention moreover relates to a compound of the formula I, A 17.1. in which R - according to 1.4. - is a spacer bonded to a natural or synthetic carrier, p 7 / 17.2. and R, R and R have the meaning given under 1.5., 17.3.1. but the compound containing a spacer according to 3.3. being excluded 17.3.2. if the glycosidic bond to the spacer is a /3-bond, 18. and to a process for its preparation.
An isolated, purified, non-toxic, soluble parasitic 204379 antigen which is stable, preservabte and immunogenic per se, i.e. requires no adjuvant when administered, is nowadays considered the ideal vaccine for malaria (R.S.Desowitz and L.H.Miller, Bull. WHO (1980) 5£, 897-908). No such 5 vaccine exists.
There was therefore the object of isolating, purifying and characterizing antigens of the ma larial parasite P.falciparum and testing their possible suitability as a malaria vaccine.
It is known that the isolation of proteins from a protein mixture can be greatly simplified by affinity chromatography. Analogously, antigens can be isolated by immunoadsorbents to which corresponding antibodies or lectins are bound, and antibodies can be isolated by i m-15 munoadsorbents to which corresponding antigens are bound. In this respect, access to monoclonal antibodies, for example by cell fusion (G.Kohler and C. Milstein, Nature (1975), 256, 495-497), and access to synthetic carbohydrate antigenic determinants vhich can be covalently attached 20 to a carrier protein or a solid matrix by means of a suitable spacer.(R.U. Lemieux, D. R. Bundle and D.A. Baker, U.S. Patent No. 4,238 ,473) ; and R«U» Lemieux, Chem. Soc. Rev. (1978) ^23-^52), have recently been of particular interest.
Surprisingly, it has now been found that compounds of the formula I are suitable for selective isolation of ceptors of the malarial parasite Plasmodium falciparum, specially when covalently attached to a solid matrix by eans of a spacer.
It has furthermore been found that compounds of 204379 the formula I can be used for the chemotherapy and chemo-prophylaxis of malaria.
Vanderberg et al. (M.M. Weiss, J.D. Oppenheim and J.P. Vanderberg, Exp. Parasitol. (1981) 5_1_, 400-407) have 5 found that the invasion of human erythrocytes by P. falciparum merozoites in synchronized in vitro culture is inhibited by addition of N-acetyl-D-glucosamine (DGlcNAc), D-glucosamine hydrochloride (DGlcNHjCl) and L-fucose.
They have furthermore found that intraerythrocytic growth 10 of the ma lari al parasites is inhibited by DGlcNH^Cl or L-fucose but not, however, by N-acetyl-D-glucosamine.
From this, they concluded that DGlcNH^Cl and L-fucose are toxic to malarial parasites.
The authors have assumed that D-GlcNAc acts as a 15 specific penetration inhibitor by blocking a receptor essential for the invasion process.
They have furthermore assumed that DGlcNAc is an important component of the glycoprotein receptor, which mediates the recognition or penetration of P-falciparum 20 merozoitesinto human erythrocytes,whereas D-ClcNHjCl and L-fucose are toxic.
Surprisingly, it has now been found that - in contrast to the findings of Vanderberg et al. - D-GlcNAc is toxic to intraerythrocytic parasite development, whereas L-fu-25 cose - again in contrast to the findings of Vanderberg et al. - is not toxic.
It has furthermore been found that the methyl'K-or (^-glycoside corresponding to DGlcNAc, i.e. methyl-2-acetamido-S-deoxy-^-or -(^-D-glucopyranoside (<y - or 204379 -DGLcNAcOMe), is not toxic to intraerythrocytic growth of P. fa Iciparum, but, in comparison with other methyl glycosides, such as, for example, methyl - or /3-D-glu-copyranoside, methyl ^ - or @-D-ga lactopyranoside, methyl 5 cv - or -L-fucopyranoside or methyl -D-mannopyranoside, has a greatly increased inhibitory potency on the invasion process, It has furthermore been found, surprisingly, that with a compound of formula I, in which L-fucose is bl-glycosidi- cally bound to N-acetyl-D-glucosamine, the inhibiting 10 action of DGlcNAc on the invasion of human erythrocytes by P. falciparum raerozoites in synchronized in vitro culture is increased. 19.1. The invention thus relates to the use of a com- 1 A pound of the general formula I in which R to R 15 have the meaning given under 1.1. to 6., 19.1.1. for the chemotherapy and chemoprophylaxis of malaria and 19.1.2. for the preparation of a vaccine for malaria. 19.2.1. The invention furthermore relates to a compound of the general formula I in which R^ to R^ 19.2.1. have the meaning given under 9.1. and 9.2., with the restriction made under 9.3., or 19.2.2. have the meaning given under 11.1. and 11.2. 19.3. The invention moreover relates to a compound of 25 the general formula I in which R*' to R^ have the meaning given under 11.1. and 11.2. 19.4. The invention furthermore relates to a compound of the general formula I 19.4.1. in which R^ is as in 1.2. 2043 7 9 p / 19.4.2. and Rc to R H have the meaning given in 13.2.1. or 13.2.2. or 13.2.3., 19.4.3. but the restriction made in 13.2.4. applies to a compound according to 13.2.3. 19.5. The invention moreover relates to a compound of the general formula I A 19.5.1.1. in which R is a spacer according to 15.1.1., 19.5.1.2. preferably a spacer according to 15.1.2., p / 19.5.2. and R to R have the meaning given under 1.5. 10 or 13.2.1. or 13.2.2. or 13.2.3., 19.5.3. but the compound ^ A 19.5.3.1. in which R to R are as in 1.5. being excluded 19.5.3.2.1. if the spacer is as in 3.3., \ 19.5.3.2.2. in which R^ is as in 3.6.1. or 3.6.2., 19.5.3.2.3. and if the glycosidic bond to the spacer is a -bond. 19.6. The invention furthermore relates to a compound of the general formula I 20 19.6.1 in which R^ - according to 1.4. - is a spacer bound to a natural or synthetic carrier 19.6.2. and R2, R^ and R^ have the meaning given under 1 .5 . , 19.6.3.1. but the compound in which the spacer is as in 25 3.3. 19.6.3.2. in which R5 is as in 6., being excluded 19.6.3.3. if the glycosidic bond to the spacer is a ft -bond.

A compound obtained in this manner may, depending on its structure, serve as a macromolecule tolerated by' humans, or may be used as an antigen or immunoadsorbent.
Use of a compound of the formula I for the chemotherapy and chemoprophy laxis of malaria For the chemotherapy and chemoprophylaxis of malaria, a compound of* the formula I, tolerated by humans, in which the 1 k 5 radicals R to R or R have the meaning given under 1.1. to 6. is administered orally or pa renteraIly, once or several times, in an effective amount of, for example, 0.1 jjg to 100 mg of active compound per kg of body weight, if appropriate in combination with an auxiliary and/or additive tolerated by humans.
Use of a compound of the formula I for the preparation of a malaria vaccine 2 8 MAR I985m/i To prepare a vaccine for malaria, intact merozoites or a merozoite lysate are incubated with a compound of 2043 7 9 the formula I in which R^ is a spacer bound to a solid carrier, preferably an aminated matrix, and R2 to R^ have the meaning given in 1.5. The incubated intact merozoites are lysed under buffered physiological conditions (A.Kile-jian, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA (1980), 7_7, 3695-3699).
The carrier thus treated is washed and subsequently eluted, preferably over a column, by chaotropic change or at a pH between 2.5 and 5 or between 8 and 11 or by addition of N-acety Ig lucosamine or -DG IcNAcOMe.
The product obtained in this manner, which can be purified in a manner which is known per se, is administered as a vaccine for active immunization against malaria. 204379
