The target gland for growth hormone (GH) are liver, chondrocyte (mature cell found in cartilage) and adipose cells (fat/lipid storing cells).
^ Someone else said this, but according to my anatomy book, "Although growth hormone stimulates most body cells to increase in size and divide, it's major target are the bones and skeletal muscles. Stimulation of the epiphyseal plate leads to long bone growth, and stimulation of skeletal muscles promotes increased muscle mass."

What is the process of long bone growth controlled by?

Sex hormones, such as estrogen and testosterone, play a role in the final stages of bone growth during puberty.

The thyroid gland (tissue) produces thyroxine and triiodothyronine. When the thyroid receives thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) from the pituitary gland it produces triiodothyronine which is commonly referred to as T3, and thyroxine which is commonly referred to as T4. These hormones regulate the metabolism, protein synthesis and sensitivity to other hormones in the body.
Which hormone specifically targets cells that produce hormones that affect glucose metabolism?
Insulin is the hormone that specifically targets cells that produce hormones affecting glucose metabolism. It is produced by the pancreas and regulates the uptake, utilization, and storage of glucose by cells in the body. Insulin helps to lower blood glucose levels by promoting the absorption of glucose from the blood into cells.

What six hormones primarily affect growth?
