Melanocyte-stimulating hormone (MSH) does not stimulate another gland; instead, it affects the melanocytes in the skin, influencing pigmentation. Oxytocin is not produced by the adenohypophysis but by the neurohypophysis. Luteinizing hormone and adrenocorticotropin both stimulate other glands (ovaries/testes and adrenal cortex, respectively).
