A diagnostic method for determining the absence or presence of a disease is provided. The method generally includes assaying the amount and/or types of oxidized peptides in a sample from a subject, and comparing these to the amount and types of reference oxidized polypeptides. The method may include the use of stable isotope label, affinity selection, to identify and quantify changes in oxidized peptides or oxidized proteins associated with diseases such as type II diabetes mellitus, breast cancer, and Parkinson's disease, to monitor a patient's response to a therapeutic agent (e.g., an antioxidant), and/or to monitor disease recurrence.
