<strong style="border: 0px none; list-style: none; margin: 0px; outline: none; padding: 0px;">Mesothelial cells</strong> are
 a monolayer of specialized cells which are lined within the body’s 
internal organs and serous cavities. Initially, this layer was thought 
to be a simple tissue that had the role of providing a protective 
surface that facilitated movement. However with the accumulation of 
information over the years, these cells which make up the mesothelium 
tissue are now recognized as part of a dynamic cellular membrane with 
multiple functions.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px none; color: #333333; font-family: Tahoma, Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px; list-style: none; outline: none; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-align: center;">
 <span style="text-align: left;">The main function of the mesothelium 
tissue is to provide a non-adhesive, protective and slippery surface. 
The cells therefore function as sentinel cells which sense and </span>respond
 to different signals within the microenvironment. When stimulated, they
 secrete glycosaminoglycan’s fluids which allow the visceral serosa and 
parietal membranes to slide over each other.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px none; color: #333333; font-family: Tahoma, Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px; list-style: none; outline: none; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-align: center;">
The cells transport fluids and food substances between the serosal 
cavities and across the serosal membranes. In response to different 
mediators, they also respond to external signals, this plays an 
important role in the regulation of immune, inflammatory and tissue 
repair responses.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px none; color: #333333; font-family: Tahoma, Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px; list-style: none; outline: none; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-align: center;">
The <strong style="border: 0px none; list-style: none; margin: 0px; outline: none; padding: 0px;">mesothelium cells</strong> is
 different from other epithelial surfaces since healing appears 
diversely across the shed surface, while in the true epithelial surface,
 healing would occur only at the sheet of cells and within the wound 
edges forming up as sheet of cells. Recent studies of the cells have 
also led to more understanding of the cell functions e.g. the 
mesothelial regeneration.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px none; color: #333333; font-family: Tahoma, Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px; list-style: none; outline: none; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-align: center;">
Injury of the mesothelium tissue triggers several events that lead to 
migration of mesothelial cells. The cells move from the lesion edge to 
the wound center, within the wound center, the cells then move to the 
serosal fluid that attaches and icorporates regeneration of the new 
mesothelium. If healing is compromised, adhesions of fibrous serosal 
form between the body organs and the body wall, this hinders important 
abdominal movement. Further neoplastic transformation of the mesothelial
 cells will give rise to an aggressive tumour known as malignant 
mesothelioma. This tumour is also closely associated with asbestos but 
recent studies have shown other factors such as simian virus.</div>

Mesothelial cells play pivotal roles in ovarian cancer metastasis, 
peritoneal dialysis, surgical adhesions, inflammatory response, and 
metabolic disease. These specialized epithelial cells form a single cell
 layer with a critical barrier function and provide a frictionless 
surface for organs and tissue to move without damage. We isolate 
peritoneal mesothelial cells from omental tissue biopsies with minimal 
propagation.</div>

Introduction to Mesothelioma</h3>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #4c4c4c; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em;">
Mesothelioma is a type of cancer which is caused by exposure 
to asbestos and is most commonly contracted due to exposure to asbestos 
at work.  Mesothelioma is often known by the term 'Meso', a shortened 
version of the full name.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #4c4c4c; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em;">
The name 'Mesothelioma' comes from the fact that the cells affected by 
this cancer are the mesothelial cells which cover the outer surface of 
the body's internal organs.  Mesothelioma can be found on the lungs, the
 heart or the abdomen.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #4c4c4c; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em;">
Unfortunately, there is no cure for mesothelioma and after diagnosis 
victims may only have a short time to live.  It will usually be 
investigated whether surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy would be 
worthwhile; however, mesothelioma is considered to be a terminal 
illness.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #4c4c4c; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em;">
If you have contracted mesothelioma, you may be entitled to make a 
mesothelioma claim and should consult a mesothelioma solicitor.</div>

Pleural Mesothelioma and Peritoneal Mesothelioma</h3>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #4c4c4c; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em;">
There are two main types of mesothelioma, called Pleural Mesothelioma and Peritoneal Mesothelioma.</div>
<div class="boldit" style="background-color: white; color: #4c4c4c; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-weight: bold; line-height: 1.5em;">
<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" id="Pleural_mesothelioma" name="Pleural_mesothelioma" style="border: 0px; color: #ef3225; outline: none;"></a>Pleural Mesothelioma</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #4c4c4c; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em;">
Pleural Mesothelioma is the most common and is caused by inhaling 
asbestos fibres into the lungs. A tumour forms on the lining (pleura) of
 the lungs, which makes breathing difficult and painful.  The majority 
of mesothelioma claims we deal with are for Pleural Mesothelioma.</div>
<div class="boldit" style="background-color: white; color: #4c4c4c; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-weight: bold; line-height: 1.5em;">
<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" id="Peritoneal_mesothelioma" name="Peritoneal_mesothelioma" style="border: 0px; color: #ef3225; outline: none;"></a>Peritoneal Mesothelioma</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #4c4c4c; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em;">
Peritoneal Mesothelioma is less common but is also caused by exposure to
 asbestos. A tumour then develops on the lining of the abdomen 
(peritoneum) which prevents it from working properly to lubricate the 
organs inside the abdomen.  Although Peritoneal Mesothelioma is less 
common we have still dealt with mesothelioma claims for this disease.</div>

<h3 style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1em; line-height: 20px; margin: 10px 0px;">
Causes of Mesothelioma</h3>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #4c4c4c; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em;">
Mesothelioma is caused by breathing in asbestos dust. Mesothelioma 
affects approximately four times as many men as women. This is because 
in most cases the exposure to asbestos occurred at work in places such 
as shipyards, building sites, power stations, railway workshops and 
other factories where predominantly men were employed decades ago.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #4c4c4c; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em;">
Unlike other asbestos related conditions, mesothelioma can develop even 
after exposure to relatively low levels of asbestos or where the 
exposure took place over a relatively short period of time.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #4c4c4c; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em;">
Many women who have developed mesothelioma have contracted it after 
contact with the work clothes and overalls belonging to their male 
relatives although some were directly exposed at work or by living close
 by to a factory which released asbestos fibres into the surrounding 
environment.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #4c4c4c; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em;">

<h3 style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1em; line-height: 20px; margin: 10px 0px;">
Professions where asbestos was commonplace</h3>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #4c4c4c; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em;">
At Thompsons Solicitors, we have helped many victims of asbestos to make
 mesothelioma claims.  Due to the fact that we have dealt with so many 
of these mesothelioma claims we have seen a pattern develop showing the 
workers most at risk from developing mesothelioma and some of these are 
listed below.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #4c4c4c; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em;">
<span class="boldit" style="font-weight: bold;">Boilermakers and Laggers</span> -
 It was commonplace for boilers to be insulated with asbestos lagging. 
Boilermakers also work alongside the contractors (laggers) who install 
and renew asbestos boiler insulation. This type of work has put 
boilermakers and laggers at a particularly high risk of developing 
mesothelioma.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #4c4c4c; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em;">
<span class="boldit" style="font-weight: bold;">Electricians</span> - 
are at risk of developing mesothelioma because they also worked 
alongside laggers. Electricians also often have to cut or drill through 
asbestos insulation to install cable trays, instruments, switches and 
wiring systems.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #4c4c4c; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em;">
<span class="boldit" style="font-weight: bold;">Joiners and Carpenters and Builders </span>-
 are also at risk of developing mesothelioma as a result of sawing, 
drilling and fixing or replacing asbestos cement board often used in 
partition walls, suspended ceilings, flooring, roof tiles and thermal 
insulation.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #4c4c4c; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em;">
<span class="boldit" style="font-weight: bold;">Motor Mechanics</span> -
 may have been exposed to asbestos as it was frequently used in brake 
pads and clutches.  This has put some Motor Mechanics at risk of 
developing mesothelioma.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #4c4c4c; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em;">
<span class="boldit" style="font-weight: bold;">Pipe Fitters and Plumbers</span> -
 install, maintain and repair pipes, boilers and heating systems. The 
nature of their work means that they have to cut or drill through walls 
as well as cutting and assembling sections of pipe, removing and 
replacing damaged sections of pipe, valve and flanges etc. All of these 
tasks put them at risk of developing mesothelioma as pipes frequently 
used to be covered with asbestos lagging. As the pipes were cut, fibres 
from the asbestos lagging were released into the air and inhaled by the 
pipefitter or plumber.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #4c4c4c; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em;">
Victims of mesothelioma are certainly not limited to the professions 
mentioned above. Our specialist mesothelioma solicitors / lawyers have 
helped victims of this asbestos related disease with their mesothelioma 
claims who have worked in many other professions including fire 
fighters, teachers, police officers, managers and a professor.</div>

<h3 style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1em; line-height: 20px; margin: 10px 0px;">
How asbestos was used</h3>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #4c4c4c; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em;">
Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral and its name is derived from a
 Greek word meaning inextinguishable.  It was mined and used by the 
Ancient Greeks and the Romans then became increasingly popular during 
the 19th century.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #4c4c4c; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em;">
Due to its resistance to heat, electricity and chemical damage, together
 with its ability to absorb sound, asbestos was commonly used by the 
building trade as an additive to cement, by the car industry as brake 
shoes and in the engineering industry as a lagging for pipes and 
boilers.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #4c4c4c; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em;">
Asbestos was used heavily after the Second World War in 1945 and was not completely banned from use in the UK until 1999.</div>

Seeking Medical help</h3>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #4c4c4c; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em;">
Mesothelioma can develop between 15 and 40 years or more after an 
exposure to asbestos.  If you have been exposed to asbestos in the past 
and you start to suffer from any of the following symptoms you should 
visit your GP and mention your concerns:</div>
<ul style="background-color: white; color: #4c4c4c; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 20px;">
<li style="line-height: 1.5em;">Pains in the lower back, abdomen or chest</li>
<li style="line-height: 1.5em;">A persistent cough</li>
<li style="line-height: 1.5em;">Breathing difficulties, shortness of breath or a feeling of tightness in the chest</li>
<li style="line-height: 1.5em;">Rapid weight loss</li>
<li style="line-height: 1.5em;">Problems with appetite or difficulty swallowing</li>
<li style="line-height: 1.5em;">Sweating, fevers, diarrhoea or constipation</li>
<li style="line-height: 1.5em;">Nausea or vomiting</li>
<li style="line-height: 1.5em;">Swelling of the abdomen</li>
</ul>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #4c4c4c; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em;">
Some people with mesothelioma have no symptoms at all in the early 
stages; therefore, if you know that you have been exposed to asbestos in
 the past and believe it may be the cause of your symptoms, it is always
 a good idea to visit a doctor for medical advice. Any damage caused by 
asbestos may be possible to detect with a scan or x-ray.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #4c4c4c; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em;">

This is a consultation on a package of reforms to the procedures governing mesothelioma claims in England and Wales. </div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px;">
Mesothelioma is an aggressive and, sadly, terminal occupational 
disease.  Approximately 2,200 people currently die in England and Wales 
each year from this terrible condition, with sufferers having a median 
life expectancy of only 7 to 9 months from diagnosis.  Despite this, 
around 50% of claims for compensation for mesothelioma take over 12 
months to settle, which means that sufferers may die before their claims
 are paid out.  The proposals in this consultation seek to increase the 
speed and improve the efficiency of the claims process so that 
compensation can be paid as soon as possible.</div>

The consultation is aimed at people and organisations with an interest 
in the mesothelioma claims process in England and Wales. We welcome 
responses to the questions set out in this consultation paper and any 
other comments you may have.</div>

<strong>We may allow a short extension to the closing date but only on a

<div class="results-description" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px;">
There were 105 stakeholder responses received to the 'Reforming 
mesothelioma claims' consultation.  Following careful consideration of 
these responses, Shailesh Vara MP, Minister for Courts and Legal Aid, 
issued a Written Ministerial Statement on 4 December 2013 annoucing the 
Government's decisions following the consultation. </div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px;">
The Government has decided to apply sections 44 and 46 of the Legal Aid,
 Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders (LASPO) Act 2012  (the LASPO 
reforms) to diffuse mesothelioma cases, as for all other personal injury
 cases.  We have declined to take forward a dedicated Mesothelioma 
Pre-Action Protocol supported by a fixed recoverable costs regime and 
electronic Secure Mesothelioma Claims Gateway as they currently stand on
 the grounds that there is not a strong enough case that they will meet 
the Government’s declared aim of ensuring that mesothelioma compensation
 claims are settled fairly, where necessary, quickly.</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px;">
This document provides a summary of responses, conclusions and next 
steps and contains the report under Section 48 of the LASPO Act 2012.</div>
