Swine exposed to cold air have elevated serum values of total triiodothyronine (TT3) and free T3 (FT3). To characterize the mechanism of these increases, we measured in vivo kinetic parameters after a bolus intravenous injection of 125I-labeled T3 by use of both multicompartmental (MC) and noncompartmental (NC) methods and in vitro hepatic type I iodothyronine 5'-deiodinase (5'D-I) activity. Ten ad libitum-fed 5-mo-old boars were divided into two groups, living for 25 days in either control (22 degrees C) or cold (4 degrees C) conditions. Cold-exposed animals consumed 50% more calories than control animals but showed no difference in total body weight, percent body fat, or plasma volume. Thyroid gland weight was increased 86% (P < 0.004), as was serum total thyroxine (TT4) (48%), free T4 (FT4) (61%), TT3 (103%), and FT3 (107%), whereas serum thyrotropin (TSH) was not different in cold-exposed compared with control animals. The T3 plasma clearance rate was similar between groups when both MC and NC techniques were used. However, T3 plasma appearance rate (PAR) was elevated in cold-treated animals 110% over controls by MC (P < 0.001) and 83% by NC methods (P < 0.001). The animal total hormone pool of T3 was increased 76% (MC) and 53% (NC) compared with control (P < 0.01). The Michaelis constant of hepatic 5'D-I was not different between groups, but the maximum enzyme velocity increased (106%; P < 0.02). Therefore cold exposure for 25 days is associated with increased energy intake, thyroid size, T3 PAR, and hepatic 5'D-I activity with little change in serum TSH.
