Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) are the most common systemic autoimmune diseases, and they are increasingly being recognized as occurring in the same patient population. These two diseases share several clinical features and laboratory parameters, but the exact mechanism of their co-pathogenesis remains unclear. The intention of this study was to investigate the common molecular mechanisms involved in RA and pSS using integrated bioinformatic analysis. RNA-seq data for RA and pSS were picked up from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Co-expression genes linked with RA and pSS were recognized using weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) and differentially expressed gene (DEG) analysis. Then, we screened two public disease-gene interaction databases (GeneCards and Comparative Toxicogenomics Database) for common targets associated with RA and pSS. The DGIdb database was used to predict therapeutic drugs for RA and pSS. The Human microRNA Disease Database (HMDD) was used to screen out the common microRNAs associated with RA and pSS. Finally, a common miRNA-gene network was created using Cytoscape. Four hub genes (CXCL10, GZMA, ITGA4, and PSMB9) were obtained from the intersection of common genes from WGCNA, differential gene analysis and public databases. Twenty-four drugs corresponding to hub gene targets were predicted in the DGIdb database. Among the 24 drugs, five drugs had already been reported for the treatment of RA and pSS. Other drugs, such as bortezomib, carfilzomib, oprozomib, cyclosporine and zidovudine, may be ideal drugs for the future treatment of RA patients with pSS. According to the miRNA-gene network, hsa-mir-21 may play a significant role in the mechanisms shared by RA and pSS. In conclusion, we identified commom targets as potential biomarkers in RA and pSS from publicly available databases and predicted potential drugs based on the targets. A new understanding of the molecular mechanisms associated with RA and pSS is provided according to the miRNA-gene network.
