Brief Summary: The aim of this study is to further profile and develop the Lipopolysaccharide, endotoxin (LPS) challenge models (both by instillation and inhalation) by investigating the utility of various non-invasive monitoring methods.
Detailed Description: The hypothesis of the project is that local inflammatory changes in the lung induced by LPS can be captured by gas-enhanced Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and analysis of exhaled breath. While MRI is able to provide localized information on inflammatory processes, exhaled breath analysis can capture integral information over time. Assuming that these novel techniques correlate with cellular measures of inflammation, repetitive measurements to investigate onset and duration of action of investigational new drugs will be made possible.

The evaluation whether LPS induced changes in the lung can be captured and monitored by MRI will be performed by correlation of multiple endpoints describing the cellular composition of the airways with variables derived from MRI and breath analysis.
