Table 5 Comparison between the GPA and housekeeping gene normalizations based on simulated boutique array data with the SIMAGE method. The data sets include 1000 genes in 50 slides with 60% differentially expressed genes and the ratios of up-regulated to down-regulated genes are 5:5, 7:3, and 9:1, respectively.
