How are the effects of human growth hormone (hGh) somatotropin mediated at the tissue level?

I think it has to do with the fact that they stimulate several tissues to secrete insulin like growth factors? Can someone let me know if I am on the right track?
Maybe reading these two articles will put you on the right track:

Frankly, I have no idea. I would never, ever consider taking HGH for any reason.
