Thanks for the response. Sorry for the confusion, I was refering to the graphic from the journal you shared for fold changes.
You essentially have standarized data already. Standardize Data takes each Y (Column) and subtracts the column mean and divides by the column standard deviation (see below link).

Since you have normalized RNA-seq results in the same units, then definately uncheck standardize data since they all have the same scale (meaning) per sample for each gene (Y Column) . I am guessing that the normalized FPKM values are also log2 tranformed? You would then have over and under represented genes displayed as postive and negative, respectively, on the scale
I hope that helps.
Chris.
