Regulatory T cells play a dominant role in suppression of autoimmune pathology, as rescue of Treg number and/or function in model systems can both prevent and reverse disease. These findings have generated a series of studies addressing the role of defects in Treg number and function in human autoimmunity. However, demonstrating global defects in Treg of individuals diagnosed with autoimmune diseases has been challenging. These challenges are founded, in part, in the complexity of human autoimmune diseases in which various genetic factors and environmental triggers contribute to disease susceptibility and the contribution of failed Treg mediated suppression to the pathogenesis of disease can extend to multiple mechanisms. Here, we discuss what is known with respect to the number and function of CD4+FOXP3+ Treg in human autoimmunity, focusing on representative autoimmune diseases in which there are diverse Treg-mediated defects and highlight the need to better understand Treg plasticity and function in the context of autoimmunity.
