Figure 4

Overlap of identified probesets with cancer to normal differential expression in the bulk, LCM, and linear amplified bulk datasets. The number of upregulated probesets (a) identified is consistent between datasets, with the closest agreement between bulk and linear amplified bulk samples. For down-regulated probesets (b), there remains a tight association between bulk and linear amplified bulk samples. In the LCM samples the number of observed down-regulated probesets is substantially higher than that observed in either the bulk or linear amplified bulk samples.
