The corticotropin also known as Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) is secreted by anterior pitituary gland. It stimulates secretion of glucocorticoid steroid hormones from adrenal gland.

Gonadotropins are secreted by ​anterior pituitary gland. The primary target organs of gonadotropins are testes and ovaries.
