TL;DR: This critical review assesses the recent development in transferring large‐area graphene grown on Fe, Ru, Co, Ir, Ni, Pt, Au, Cu, and some nonmetal substrates by using various synthesized methods and concludes the most promising methods and the further prospects of graphene transfer.
Abstract: Graphene, the thinnest, strongest, and stiffest material with exceptional thermal conductivity and electron mobility, has increasingly received world-wide attention in the past few years. These unique properties may lead to novel or improved technologies to address the pressing global challenges in many applications including transparent conducting electrodes, field effect transistors, flexible touch screen, single-molecule gas detection, desalination, DNA sequencing, osmotic energy production, etc. To realize these applications, it is necessary to transfer graphene films from growth substrate to target substrate with large-area, clean, and low defect surface, which are crucial to the performances of large-area graphene devices. This critical review assesses the recent development in transferring large-area graphene grown on Fe, Ru, Co, Ir, Ni, Pt, Au, Cu, and some nonmetal substrates by using various synthesized methods. Among them, the transfers of the most attention kinds of graphene synthesized on Cu and SiC substrates are discussed emphatically. The advances and the main challenges of each wet and dry transfer method for obtaining the transferred graphene film with large-area, clean, and low defect surface are also reviewed. Finally, the article concludes the most promising methods and the further prospects of graphene transfer.

TL;DR: Analysis of glucocorticoid action in Leydig cells indicates the presence of a fast, non-genomic pathway that will merit further investigation, and may explain the rapid onset of inhibition under stressful conditions.
Abstract: The Leydig cell is the primary source of testosterone in males. Levels of testosterone in circulation are determined by the steroidogenic capacities of individual Leydig cells and the total numbers of Leydig cells per testis. Stress-induced increases in serum glucocorticoid concentrations inhibit testosterone-biosynthetic enzyme activity, leading to decreased rates of testosterone secretion. It is unclear, however, whether the excessive glucocorticoid stimulation also affects total Leydig cell numbers through induction of apoptosis and thereby contributes to the stress-induced suppression of androgen levels. Exposure of Leydig cells to high concentrations of corticosterone (CORT, the endogenously secreted glucocorticoid in rodents) increases their frequency of apoptosis. Studies of immobilization stress indicate that stress-induced increases in CORT are directly responsible for Leydig cell apoptosis. Access to glucocorticoid receptors in Leydig cells is modulated by oxidative inactivation of glucocorticoid by 11 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (11 betaHSD). Under basal levels of glucocorticoid, sufficient levels of glucocorticoid metabolism occur and there is likely to be minimal binding of the glucocorticoid receptor. We have established that Leydig cells express type 1 11 betaHSD, an oxidoreductase, and type 2, a unidirectional oxidase. Generation of redox potential through synthesis of the enzyme cofactor NADPH, a byproduct of glucocorticoid metabolism by 11 betaHSD-1, may potentiate testosterone biosynthesis, as NADPH is the cofactor used by steroidogenic enzymes such as type 3 17beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase. In this scenario, inhibition of steroidogenesis will only occur under stressful conditions when high input amounts of CORT exceed the capacity of oxidative inaction by 11 betaHSD. Changes in autonomic catecholaminergic activity may contribute to suppressed Leydig cell function during stress, and may explain the rapid onset of inhibition. However, recent analysis of glucocorticoid action in Leydig cells indicates the presence of a fast, non-genomic pathway that will merit further investigation.
