Ingenol mebutate (IM) induces a mixed inflammatory infiltrate. Histopathology of an actinic keratosis of the scalp on day 4 after a treatment with ingenol mebutate (IM)-0.015%-gel for 3 consecutive days. IM recruits a dense neutrophil-rich infiltrate (a) (hematoxylin and eosin stain). Myeloperoxidase staining reveals also abundant neutrophils in the Stratum corneum, forming microabscesses (b). CD3 stains for chemoattracted T cells (c), CD68 for histiocytes and neutrophils (d)
