Brief Summary: Bronchoalveolar lavage BAL is a diagnostic and therapeutic procedure conducted by placing a small fiberoptic scope into the lung of a patient and injecting sterile water saline into the lung and removing the fluid The sterile solution removed contains secretions cells and protein from the lower respiratory tract This sample can be analyzed to provide more information about possible disease processes going on in the lungs

This protocol will be used to perform BAL bronchial brushing and bronchial wall biopsy in normal volunteers and patients with pulmonary disease The samples collected during the study will be used to examine biochemical processes in the lung that may contribute to lung disease
Detailed Description: This protocol proposes to perform bronchoalveolar lavage bronchial brushing and bronchial wall biopsy in research volunteers and in patients with pulmonary disease to evaluate the cellular components of normal and diseased lungs This research study will help to improve our understanding of pathogenic mechanisms in the lung during progression of pulmonary disease
