Immunosuppressive molecules are valuable prognostic biomarkers across different cancer types. Leukocyte immunoglobulin like receptor subfamily B1 (LILRB1) is considered to be an immunosuppressive molecule, which is an important receptor of human leukocyte antigen G. However, the clinical significance of LILRB1 expression in gastric cancer remains unexplored. We analyzed the immunohistochemistry data of 166 gastric cancer patients to determine the clinicopathologic and survival significance of LILRB1. Immunofluorescence was conducted to detect the co-localization of LILRB1 with infiltrating immune cells. Additionally, we also assessed the immune contexture, immune cell functions and tumor microenvironment state related to LILRB1. We found that LILRB1 was mainly present in tumor stroma which was higher in tumor tissues compared with matched adjacent tissues. High-LILRB1 expression was associated with more advanced tumor stage, higher recurrence risk and worse survival. Immunohistochemistry and bioinformatic analysis showed that LILRB1 had a significant positive correlation with M2 tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) infiltration. Immunofluorescence confirmed that M2 TAMs were the primary immune cells expressing LILRB1. Dense infiltration of LILRB1+ M2 TAMs yielded an immunosuppressive microenvironment manifested as enriched exhausted CD8+ T cells and increased immunosuppressive cytokines. Moreover, patients with high infiltration of both LILRB1+ cells and M2 TAMs indicated poor prognosis and inferior therapeutic responsiveness to adjuvant chemotherapy. In conclusion, LILRB1+ M2 TAMs were associated with a pro-tumor immune contexture and determine poor prognosis in gastric cancer. Further studies are essential to explore therapeutic targeting LILRB1+ M2 TAMs.
