Detailed Solution

Unlike other pituitary hormones, human growth hormone (hGH) does not specifically control any other endocrine gland but promotes growth of body tissues, including bones and skeletal muscles.

TSH stimulates thyroid gland.

ACTH stimulates adrenal cortex.

LH stimulates corpus luteum (a temporary endocrine gland) and Leydig cells (that secrete androgens).
