The composition according to any one of claims 1 to 7, wherein the pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle is selected from hypothermic biopreservation media and infusion solutions. 9. The composition according to claim 8, wherein the pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle is selected from HypoThermosol®, HypoThermosol® FRS Preservation Media, Ringer’s solution, Ringer’s lactate solution, Hartmann’s lactate solution, saline solution, glucose solution, albumin solution, and mixtures thereof. 10. The composition according to claim 9, wherein the pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle is selected from HypoThermosol®, HypoThermosol® FRS Preservation Media, a combination of Ringer’s lactate solution and albumin, and a combination of saline solution and glucose. 11. The composition according to claim 10, wherein the pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle is selected from HypoThermosol®, and HypoThermosol® FRS Preservation Media. 12. The composition according to claim 11 , wherein the pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle is HypoThermosol® FRS Preservation Media. 13. A kit of parts comprising: a. a first vial containing a population of MSCs as defined in any one of claims 1 to 12; and b. a second vial comprising ATP at any of the concentrations defined in any one of claims 1 to 12; wherein the kit further comprises a pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle. 14. The kit of parts according to claim 13, further comprising instructions for use specifying the co-administration or sequential application of the MSCs and the ATP for promoting hair growth. 15. A composition according to any one of claims 1 to 12 or the kit of parts according to any one of claims 13 or 14, for use in the prevention or treatment of alopecia. 16. The composition for use according to claim 15, for use in the prevention or treatment of androgenic alopecia. 17. A non-therapeutic use of the composition according to any one of claims 1 to 12 or the kit of parts according to any one of claims 14 or 15, for promoting hair growth in a subject in need thereof. 18. Isolated and expanded MSCs, preferably ADSCs, for use in promoting hair growth. 19. Isolated and expanded MSCs, preferably ADSCs, for use in the prevention of androgenic alopecia and/or treatment of androgenic alopecia. 20. The composition for use according to any one of claims 15 or 16 or 18 or 19, wherein the dose of the cells to be administered is comprised between about 10<5>and about 10<6>cells combined with a concentration of ATP comprised between about 10 pM and about 20 mM, in a pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle per cm<2>of alopecic area.
