Validation of RA and SLE candidate hub genes by ROC analysis showed 12 genes (BPTF, PHC2, JUN, KRAS, PTEN, FGFR2, ALB, SERB-1, SKP2, TUBA1A, IMP3, and SMAD4) for RA and 12 genes (OAS1, RSAD2, OASL, IFIT3, OAS2, IFIH1, CENPE, TOP2A, PBK, KIF11, IFIT1, and ISG15) for SLE could be considered as biomarker genes, for diagnosis. The gene discussed is SKP2; the disease is rheumatoid arthritis.
