I don't know whether this might be relevant, but digging in
my memory I remember a conversation with Mark Lowdell
(somewhere in London, UK) more than 3 years ago. He
mentioned one of the CD8 chains can actually shed of and
thus lead to decreased CD8 detection.

In response to the question raised by Karen Mann:
Decreased numbers of CD8+ cells have been described in autoimmune diseases,
specifically in rheumatoid arthritis. A decrease in the CD8 cell count is not
specific, however.
