What are the paracrine glands?

Endocrine glands release chemicals directly to what?
Endocrine glands release chemicals directly into the bloodstream. These hormones are then carried by the circulatory system to their target tissues.
What is the name of the hormones that target other endocrine glands to stimulate their growth and secretion?
