Summary

Rationale: High-density lipoprotein (HDL), which is consistently increased after moderate alcohol consumption, is an abundant plasma lipoprotein that is generally thought to be anti-inflammatory in both health and infectious disease. HDL binds and neutralizes the bioactivity of potent bacterial remnants such as lipopolysaccharides (LPS) which stimulate the host innate immune responses.

Primary objective: To explore whether prolonged moderate alcohol consumption affects in vivo cytokine response after a low dose of LPS in young, normal-weight men.
