Significance Discovering new targets and novel determinants of metastatic spread is an unmet need in ovarian cancer, which is plagued by high rates of recurrence. Endothelin-1 receptors (ET-1R), belonging to the G-protein–coupled receptor family, represent important targets critically involved in malignant progression. Here we identify a mechanistic link between ET-1R and the actin regulatory protein hMENA/hMENAΔv6 through the specific interaction with the multifunctional protein β-arrestin1 (β-arr1), which initiates signaling cascades as part of the molecular complex crucial for invadopodial maturation and malignant dissemination. Targeting ET-1R by using macitentan, a Food and Drug Administration-approved antipulmonary arterial hypertension drug, can impair the β-arr1–mediated signaling network controlling ovarian cancer progression and therefore represents a therapeutic option for ovarian cancer patients.
