Abstract: CD8+CD25+Treg can inhibit immune response and induce immune tolerance. This article reviews the changes and underlying mechanisms of CD8+CD25+Treg in pathogenesis of malignant tumors, autoimmune diseases and other common diseases such as asthma, allergic diseases, type 2 diabetes, and pre-eclampsia. The changes of CD8+CD25+Treg in different diseases are inconsistent, cell counting increased in malignant diseases but decreased in autoimmune diseases. Further understanding of CD8+CD25+Treg would supporte a basis for the prevention, treatment and improving prognosis of these diseases.

Key words: CD8+CD25+Treg, CD8+ Treg, regulatory T cells, autoimmune diseases, tumors
