Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to determine the inflammatory response to 20,000 endotoxin units (EU) of CCRE (Clinical Center Reference Endotoxin) inhalation in a cohort of healthy volunteers. Preferably these subjects will have participated in ozone exposure studies, allowing a direct comparison of their responses to both endotoxin and ozone. Additionally, cardiovascular endpoints will be investigated with the CCRE exposure.
