Professional Interests

<p>Liver regeneration is critical for health. We focus on physiology of liver regeneration during development, early childhood and adulthood to inform mechanistic disruptions in diseases. The latter ranges from acute liver failure, effects of drugs, toxins, alcohol, virus hepatitis, obesity-related metabolic (or nonalcoholic) liver disease, chronic hepatitis, e.g., Wilson disease with copper toxicosis, and allograft rejection. The mechanisms concerning DNA damage response directed by ATM gene and downstream partners are of considerable interest to us.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;</p>
<p>These aspects are joined with study of cell type-specific contributions as well as aspects of stem cell biology for liver regeneration. We apply cell transplantation approaches to better understand the biology and regenerative potential of various cell types. Expression of therapeutic constructs and transplantation of those cells is another area of investigative interest. We address the role of endogenous stem/progenitor cells in therapeutic development. Tissue engineering to generate auxiliary liver has potential in these areas and is also advancing liver regenerartion in experimental models.</p>
<p>We use a variety of methods, including microarrays or deep sequencing for gene expression, cell and molecular biology methods, and multiple small and large animal models. The findings are integrated with analyses of human tissue and blood samples.</p>
<p>Unique aspects of our work include use of established drugs for mechanistic interrogations and therapeutic applications, and an uncommon depth and breadth of multidisciplinary tools. We collaborate with leading investigators at Einstein or elsewhere as appropriate.</p>

Research Areas
Liver regeneration in health and disease
Biology and differentiation of hepatic stem cells
DNA damage response involving ATM and downstream pathways
Translational studies using liver cell and animal models

Expert Summary

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 15.6pt;"><span style="font-size: 9.0pt;">Dr. Gupta is a pioneer in the development of cell therapy &ndash; treating disease by introducing healthy cells into the body.&nbsp; He has discovered various mechanisms for coaxing transplanted cells to attach to host tissue and multiply, paving the way for treating health problems such as&nbsp; high cholesterol, hemophilia, liver failure, and hepatitis.&nbsp;</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 15.6pt;"><span style="font-size: 9.0pt;">Dr. Gupta has successfully manipulated human stem cells to generate liver cells and defined some of the fundamental ways by which gene expression is regulated in stem cells. Dr. Gupta serves as an expert for the National Institutes of Health, U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, U.S. Department of Defense, Wellcome Trust, and national scientific bodies in over ten countries.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 15.6pt;"><span style="font-size: 9.0pt;">In the 1990s, Dr. Gupta contributed to the first ever clinical trial of a cell/gene therapy for familial hypercholesterolemia (high cholesterol), which results from a gene defect. He also showed that Wilson&rsquo;s disease (a genetic condition characterized by excessive accumulation of copper in the liver and brain) could potentially be cured by use of cell therapy.&nbsp;</span></p>
