Regulatory T cell (Treg) populations control autoimmune and allergic immunopathology induced by self or foreign antigens. Several types of CD4+ MHC class II-restricted Treg have been characterized but the biology of CD8+, MHC class I-restricted Treg is less understood. We show here that CD8+ Treg are rapidly generated in the presence of IL-4 and IL-12, produce IL-10 and exhibit a unique cell surface phenotype with coexpression of activation and naive cell-associated markers. They block activation of naive or effector T cells and suppress IgG/IgE antibody responses and Graft-versus-Host disease in vivo. Suppression is dependent on cell contact and mediated by direct T cell:T cell interaction that antagonizes TCR signals. The data establish the existence of a CD8 T cell suppressor effector subset distinct in both phenotype and function from Tc1 and Tc2 cells. Production of such CD8 Treg has potential for cell-based therapy of CD4 or CD8 T cell-mediated disease.
