    Growth hormone targets most tissues and its over secretion causes giantism while its under secretion causes dwarfism. Thyroid stimulating hormone, adrenocorticotropic hormone, and others target specific endocrine glands and tissues. The hormones have different effects depending on whether they are over or under secreted, such as hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism, Cushing syndrome or Addison's disease, and various reproductive abnormalities. Insulin regulates blood sugar levels by targeting the liver, muscle, and fat cells, causing hypoglycemia if over secreted and hyperglycemia if under secreted.
