Abstract: A method of treating a cancer in a mammalian subject afflicted with the cancer, consisting essentially of administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a platinum-based anticancer agent, and administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a pentaaza macrocyclic ring complex corresponding to the Formula (I) below, prior to, concomitantly with, or after administration of the platinum-based anticancer agent, whereby response of the cancer to the platinum-based anticancer agent is increased.

Abstract: Calcium/calmodulin dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) has been found to be directly oxidized, and direct oxidation of CaMKII was observed to result in calcium independent activation of CaMKII. Antibodies that bind specifically to oxidized forms of CaMKII (oxCaMKII) were generated and were utilized to detect oxCaMKII in blood from: (1) mice with cancer; (2) mice with a knock out of the gene encoding methionine sulfoxide reductase; (3) mice injected with angiotensin II; (4) mice injected with bacterial endotoxin; (5) mice fed a pro-oxidant (ketogenic) diet; and (6) mice with cancer that had been treated with experimental therapy.
