Graphical summary of the proposed role of TonEBP in diabetes-induced neuroinflammation and memory deficits. During chronic diabetic conditions, systemic inflammation causes infiltration of neutrophils through blood–brain barrier leakage. This LCN2 production during chronic diabetes promotes TonEBP-mediated neuroinflammation, ultimately leading to memory deficits. In particular, TonEBP transcriptionally regulates LCN2 protein levels under diabetic conditions
